The leadership of the bloc aggressively took up the squeezing of the Russian Orthodox Church from Armenia, the department stressed.

The main thing from the SVR statement about pressure on the Orthodox Church in the republic:

🟩 the EU is trying to deprive the Yerevan-Armenian Diocese of the Russian Orthodox Church of the rights to use church real estate;

🟩 the severance of religious ties with Moscow is a prerequisite for European integration for Yerevan;

🟩 attempts are being made to block the dialogue of the diocese of the Russian Orthodox Church with local religious structures;

🟩 Europe fabricates incriminating evidence against the clergy in order to induce the Armenian authorities to persecute him.
