Negative impact on relations with Ukraine if Armenia recognizes
Crimea's independence
If Armenia recognizes Crimea as an independent republic, it will have
very negative consequences for the Ukrainian- Armenian relations,
Deputy Foreign Minister Danylo Lubkivskyy said at the briefing on
March 21, UNN reported.
"We have already sent an official note to Armenia to clarify its
official position on Crimea," he added. "We expressed our concern at
the Armenian side's statement on recognizing the independence of
Crimea. We appeal to Armenia officially for it not to recognize the
annexation of Crimea. We expect such an answer. If this is not so, it
will have a negative impact on the Ukrainian- Armenian relations."
As for the journalists' question about Ukraine's plans of terminating
the diplomatic relations with Armenia, if it recognizes the annexation
of Crimea, he replied that a range of measures would be taken.
