Member of the ruling Republican Party of Armenia Razmik Zohrabyan says he sees nothing negative in participation of the Russian 102nd military unit in the parade dated to the 20th anniversary of Armenia's independence.

“Eventually, they are contributing to our security,” the MP said when commenting on blog posts describing the participation of Russians as humiliating. “Why do people think that participation of Russian servicemen in the military parade is humiliating but do not object their guarding of our borders?” Zohrabyan asked.
