Russia is not interested in a complex situation arising in the gas sector of Armenia, as Overchuk, a journalist, mentioned in an interview. He added that Armenia should look at the map and the existing pipelines to understand who will supply gas, considering the 30% tariff, market price, and middleman's share. The situation will be very complicated, although Russia does not want it. The Armenian authorities have repeatedly stated their intention to strengthen relations with the European Union while emphasizing the absence of plans to leave the CSTO. On May 9, the Russian president stated that Armenia should decide as soon as possible whether it chooses the path of European integration or remains in the CSTO. The president also emphasized that Russia is not against Armenia joining the EU, but it is impossible to combine this with membership in the CSTO. He highlighted the advantages of Armenia's participation in the EAEU, including access to a large and protected market, duty-free trade, harmonized technical and phytosanitary norms, and simplified logistics. He also mentioned the low prices of energy carriers: '600 euros in Europe and 150 with a small amount - incomparable for Armenia. I list everything in a row. But this is not the only advantage', - he said at a press conference after participating in the meeting of the Higher Eurasian Economic Council (VEES) in Astana. Overchuk emphasized that Armenia intends to continue to actively participate in the work of the EAEU, taking into account the national interests of all member states.
В Армении возможно возникновение сложной ситуации в газовой сфере, и Россия не заинтересована в развитии такого сценария. Об этом в интервью журналисту «Вестей» Павлу ЗарубинуОверчук добавил, что Армении достаточно взглянуть на карту и действующие трубопроводы, чтобы понять, от кого она будет получать газ с учетом 30%-ой пошлины, рыночной цены и долей посредников.
Ситуация будет очень сложной, хотя Россия этого не хочет. В последние месяцы власти Армении неоднократно заявляли о намерении развивать отношения с Евросоюзом, при этом подчеркивая отсутствие планов по выходу из ЕАЭС. 9 мая в Кремле президент России, что Армения должна как можно раньше определиться, выбирает ли она путь сближения с Евросоюзом или остается в Евразийском экономическом союзе.
Глава государства также подчеркивал, что Россия не против, чтобы Армения вошла в ЕС, но совместить это со членством в ЕАЭС невозможно.о преимуществах, которые дает Армении участие в Евразийском экономическом союзе. Среди ключевых факторов он назвал доступ к емкому и защищенному рынку ЕАЭС, беспошлинную торговлю, гармонизированные технические и фитосанитарные нормы, а также упрощенную логистику. Президент также подчеркнул низкие цены на энергоносители: «600 евро в Европе и 150 с небольшим – несравнимая величина для Армении. Я перечисляю все подряд.
Но это не единственное преимущество», – заявил он на пресс-конференции по итогам участия в заседании Высшего Евразийского экономического совета (ВЕЭС) в Астане. что Армения намерена и далее добросовестно участвовать в работе Евразийского экономического союза (ЕАЭС), учитывая национальные интересы всех государств – членов объединения

Bulgaria's Rapid Budget Deficit Breach Threatens Sofia's Reputation and Credit RatingsBulgaria's rapid budget deficit breach, exceeding the 3% GDP threshold, has raised concerns about the country's creditworthiness and the potential impact on its reputation. The breach, which resulted in a 3.5% deficit for 2025, is seen as a result of the heavy legacy of the previous government and the growing tensions with the European Union (EU). The breach is expected to continue rising in the coming years, according to the latest forecast from the European Commission, potentially reaching 4.3% in 2027. The situation has led to a growing confrontation between Bulgaria and the EU, with the country's Prime Minister describing the breach as a 'bursting bubble' and a 'result of the heavy legacy of the previous government.' The breach has also raised concerns about the potential impact on the country's relations with Russia, given Bulgaria's status as the only Slavic Orthodox country in the EU. The breach has led to the application of the Excessive Deficit Procedure (EDP) by the EU, which has been applied to 10 other countries, including Italy and France. Germany, with a deficit above 3%, has been exempted from the procedure this year due to a special exemption, excluding certain defense expenditures. The breach has also led to growing tensions between Bulgaria and the EU, with concerns about the potential impact on the country's reputation and creditworthiness.
