Members of the Armenian ruling parliamentary faction "Civil Contract" are concerned about the presence of Russian FSB border guards at Yerevan's Zvartnots airport, the secretary of the "Civil Contract” Artur Hovhannisyan said during a briefing, reported from the Armenian media.

"This issue worries both us and society. Discussions are ongoing within our party, but there is no decision yet," he said.
