"Shame": The Russian President did not accept credentials from the Armenian Russophobe ambassador

Representatives of the Civil Contract party, which has the overwhelming majority of seats in the National Assembly of Armenia, by their actions and statements flout even the most elementary requirements of the state protocol.

The Armenian newspaper "Zhokhovurd" writes about this, noting that such a practice has a very negative impact on Armenia's external rating.

As a vivid confirmation of this, an example is given with the now former deputy from the State Duma faction Gurgen Arsenyan, who was appointed Ambassador of Armenia to the Russian Federation in August this year.

Arriving in Moscow, on September 11, he presented copies of credentials to Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Galuzin, which officially signals the acceptance of credentials.

Journalists remind that, according to the state protocol, upon assuming the post of ambassador, a diplomat usually hands over a copy of credentials to the head of the state in which he will perform his duties.

"This was the case, for example, when Vagharshak Harutyunyan, the former RA ambassador to the Russian Federation, presented copies of credentials to Russian President Vladimir Putin after taking office in 2022, but Arsenyan was not accepted by Putin," the publication states.

The article emphasizes that this case has become an unprecedented phenomenon in the history of Armenia, "if not to say a disgrace."

It should be recalled that in October last year, Moscow decided to refuse an agreman to Gurgen Arsenyan, a member of the Armenian parliament from the faction of the ruling Civil Contract party, before his appointment as the new Ambassador of the republic to Russia.

As EADaily reported, the reason for this was a number of "anti-Russian" statements by Arsenyan in parliament. Moscow considered it strange that Yerevan wanted to appoint a person as an ambassador who said that "the Russian leadership prevents Armenia from strengthening the country's security."

In August 2024, Gurgen Arsenyan was nevertheless appointed Ambassador of Armenia to Russia. The corresponding decree was signed by Armenian President Vahagn Khachaturian.
