Medvedev: Those who try to sit on two chairs risk landing painfully  on their as

ArmInfo.  Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan is persistently dragging the country into the European Union, while trying to retain all the benefits of  participation in the Eurasian Economic Union, as stated by Dmitry  Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council and  Chairman of the United Russia party, according to RIA Novosti.

 "As we know, those who try to sit on two chairs risk landing  painfully right on their own slack behinds.  This is precisely what a  certain little man nicknamed Nikol  apparently intends to do in the  near future. He's persistently dragging his superpower into the  European Union, while trying to preserve all the benefits of  participation in the EAEU," Medvedev wrote on  Max platform.

The Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council believes that the  Armenian population will drive Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan out of  office if Yerevan transitions to European gas prices.  "It is obvious  to everyone that if the country transitions to European gas prices,  the population will chase this fellow out with a dirty broom straight  to Paris, to his affectionate friend Macron," Medvedev wrote.  He  also referenced Pashinyan's remarks regarding Russia's "obligation"  to maintain the current gas price for Armenia at $177.5 per thousand  cubic meters. This is despite the fact that exchange prices for gas  in Europe in May 2026 hovered around $570–$590 per thousand cubic  meters for futures on the TTF hub in the Netherlands, the Security  Council Deputy Chairman noted.
