Maria Zakharova, spokeswoman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia, commented with humor the statement of the Yerevan official about the military coup attempt in Armenia by persons who received special training in Russia.

Axar.az reports that Zakharova said this while answering the question of "Nyus.ru" correspondent.

"I hope that the Comedy Club is not closed because of this," he said with a laugh.

It should be recalled that earlier, the Armenian Investigative Committee declared that it prevented the attempt of the National Security Service (NSS) employees to seize power by force through a military coup. The Investigative Committee noted that the members of the group went to Rostov and received training at the "Arbat" base there.
