The revealed sum has caused outrage online.

The gift was handed over to Narek Mkrtchyan, the Armenian Ambassador to the US.

Pashinyan recently asked Russia to ‘urgently address’ the full restoration of railway sections adjacent to Nakhchivan and the Turkish border.

Armenia received its first batch of Azerbaijani fuel, 1,218 tonnes of A-95 petrol, on 19 December.

In 2008, a 30-year concession agreement was signed, on transfer of the Armenian railway system to a Russian company.

Pashinyan was traveling to Moscow to partake in a Eurasian Economic Union session.
