"Cultural Appropriation"
It’s a recent PC concept I truly hate, but I despise the Russians more, so I would say a Russian echoing Armenians (or Georgians or Ukrainians, et al, of the former Soviet Union) in a poem is an act of “cultural appropriation,” just as it was when they took the countries that they cobbled into the monstrous USSR. Aaron, I’d much prefer to read your poem about Armenians!
