A meeting of the National Anti-Terrorism Committee was held in Moscow, dedicated to countering the spread of terrorist ideology, neo-Nazism, and religious extremism in the North Caucasus Federal District.

Secretary of the Security Council of Armenia Armen Grigoryan stated that the country does not receive ordered and paid from Russia. Because of this, Yerevan intends to look for new security mechanisms and the supply of weapons.
Grigoryan commented on the interference of the Russian special services in the affairs of Armenia: “In order to suppress any intelligence activity, a complete reform of the security structures is necessary. We must ensure that our institutions serve only Armenia.” He stressed that there is already some progress.
The Secretary of the Security Council accused the Russian Federation of creating anti-Russian sentiments among the Armenians in Karabakh: “There are no pro-Western sentiments in Nagorno-Karabakh. Instead of NATO - the Russian peacekeeping contingent. And, nevertheless, there appeared anti-Russian sentiments. Why do you think? Because of Russia itself, not because of the West. Russia itself forms the attitude towards itself.”
