Moscow Is Not Going to Cooperate with Some EEU Countries at the Expense of Others, Says Grizlov

Russia does not intend to cooperate with any of the EEU countries at the expense of other participants in the integration. This statement was made by Boris Grizlov, the Russian ambassador, in Minsk, according to RIA Novosti.

“The fact that Belarus and Russia are participants in both the Eurasian Economic Union and the Union State does not mean that our country has any restrictions on reaching an equivalent level of cooperation with Armenia, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan. I want to emphasize that Russia does not intend to cooperate with anyone at the expense of others,” said Grizlov.

The Russian ambassador highlighted that for Moscow, it is important to continue strengthening the already established ties with Armenian, Kazakh, and Kyrgyz friends, with whom there are deep historical and cultural connections.

It is noteworthy that the EEU includes Armenia, Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan.
