The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) informed that it took notice of the statements by Deputy Defense Minister and Minister for Armed Forces of the United Kingdom, James Heappey, who expressed readiness to support Armenia in case of "threats from Russia," reports RIA Novosti. "We are no longer surprised by the fact that London has stopped hiding the anti-Russian nature of all its steps in the post-Soviet territory, including in the South Caucasus. But Heappey's confessions directly confirm as well that the West strives to make Armenia an instrument of its line in the region, directed against Moscow," the Russian MFA added. Also, it noted that this situation is a reason to think for the accountable politicians in Armenia.
