The RA Government Information and Public Relations Department has issued a statement, which states in particular:
“Some media outlets are referring to a publication presented as news on July 22, which is another manifestation of hybrid warfare and manipulative propaganda. This disinformation material was published on a website of dubious origin called Periodista Digital, which has repeatedly been criticized for using fake persons, its manipulative nature, and serving as a platform for the dissemination of unsubstantiated materials.
The mentioned article has nothing to do with reality. The Republic of Armenia’s positions on the unblocking of regional transport infrastructure are clearly outlined in the “Crossroads of Peace” project. Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan extensively addressed this issue at a press conference on July 16 of this year.
Additional clarifications were also provided by the Prime Minister’s spokesperson, N. Baghdasaryan, in an interview with “Armenpress” on July 21, 2019. Any information that contradicts the content of the above cannot correspond to reality.
We urge the media and public circles to refrain from spreading such misinformation and to use exclusively official and reliable sources.”
Earlier, the mentioned website had published a report stating that Yerevan, Baku, and Washington had allegedly agreed on a memorandum regarding the transport hub.
