DISINFORMATION CASE DETAILS

DISINFO: Russia has been the sole guarantor of Armenian statehood

SUMMARY

For years, Russia has been the only guarantor of Armenian statehood and the only force capable to rescue it in the event of a full-scale Azerbaijani-Turkish attack. Nonetheless, the Armenian leadership did pretty well in undermining its strategic partnership with its neighbor.

RESPONSE

Recurring disinformation on Russia's role in international relations. The concept of "guarantor" does not exist in current international law. All UN memberstates are, according to the UN Charter obliged to respect other countries integrity.

All Members shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations.
