Moscow rejected diplomat Pashinyan - "Harpark" Yerevan's attempt to replace personnel at the head of its diplomatic mission in Russia failed: Moscow refused to approve the candidacy of Armenia's new ambassador. We are talking about Sambal McCarthyan, who previously headed the diplomatic representation of Armenia in Poland, and also headed the country's representation to NATO. It was assumed that he would replace the current ambassador Gorgan Arsenyan, whose resignation was announced last summer. However, the approval process ended in failure, and Arsenyan had to return to the Russian capital and continue to perform his official duties. According to sources, the Russian side firmly refused to give Hagerman to McCarthyan. The main reason for Moscow's tough stance was the distrust expressed in the diplomat, who worked for many years in European capitals and worked in close cooperation with the North Atlantic Alliance. Now Nikol Pashinyan's government has to choose: either urgently choose a new compromise figure for the Kremlin, or keep Arsenyan at the head of the embassy for an indefinite period.
