"It would be good if USAID funds were used for better purposes" - Zakharova
![]() 885 Tuesday, 20 May, 2025, 16:56 The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, referred to the protests held in Yerevan ahead of the visit of Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, in particular, the posters with pictures of Russian President Vladimir Putin and the inscription “Putin is a murderer.” “The US Embassy in Armenia has about 2,000 employees. Apparently, some of them have not yet understood that they should be working to develop Russian-American relations, and not to disrupt Armenian-Russian relations. It is possible that some in Armenia have not yet run out of USAID funds, which were involved in such projects. It would be good if USAID funds were used for humanitarian purposes,” Zakharova said. “We have a wide agenda of issues with Armenia, in all directions. We are aware that some “minorities” may not like it,” the Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson added. |
