In comments to the press, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that Armenia’s recent decision to join the International Criminal Court (ICC), which earlier this year issued a fabricated charge of “kidnapping” against Russian President Vladimir Putin and ordered his arrest, “was an ill-considered decision.” Peskov added: “We definitely have a lot in common that ties us to the fraternal Armenian people. We have no doubt that these common ties will link us forever. However, we now of course have some additional questions that we must address to Armenia’s current leadership. They were sent to Armenia earlier.”
