June 14, Pozirk.<\/em><\/strong> Yerevan has protested remarks by Belarusian foreign ministry spokesman Anatol H\u0142az in a note to Minsk, said<\/a> Ani Badalyan, his Armenian counterpart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yesterday, H\u0142az commented on a mutual withdrawal of ambassadors for consultations by saying that Belarus is not going to worsen its relations with Armenia “no matter how much the Armenian leadership is pushed to do so by external actors.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He wished the Armenian people “leaders who will truly think about the future of the country and the well-being of the people.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also alleged that the Armenian leadership seeks to “divert public attention from internal problems by portraying an external enemy” and took a “short-sighted position.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“While expressing wishes of a leadership that thinks about the future of the country, one should have such a leadership. In the case of Belarus, it\u2019s currently indeed a luxury,” Badalyan responded<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On June 13, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said he and other Armenian officials will not travel to Belarus as long as Alaksandar \u0141uka\u0161enka is in power. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pashinyan was angered by \u0141uka\u0161enka\u2019s declaration of support for Azerbaijan and his tour of Nagorno-Karabakh, which Azerbaijani forces captured last fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On June 12, Belarusian opposition leader \u015aviat\u0142ana Cichano\u016dskaja welcomed Armenia\u2019s decision to freeze its participation in the Moscow-led Collective Security Treaty Organization. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

She was commenting on Pashinyan’s statement that individual CSTO members had been plotting against Armenia together with Azerbaijan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Armenian leader also announced a possible withdrawal from the bloc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
