Oh, no, will Putin throw another of his famous *temper tantrums* because Armenia dared to speak to someone other than him?
Putin is driving Armenia into NATO’s hands. All you hear from Lavrov, Peskov and company is for ***both*** sides to show restraint.
Putin aka Satan is driving Armenia into turkish hands, Armenia will gladly become a NATO member. No restraint but swift action is required from Armenia to crash the enemy.
