US preventive actions against Iran might cause a long-lasting tragedy
in the whole of the South Caucasus, which can be compared with the
ramifications of the recent devastating tsunami in Asia, MP Vazgen
Manukyan, leader of the National Democratic Union of Armenia and a
veteran of Armenian politics, who has run for the presidency for four
times, told Arminfo while commenting on the recent statement of the US
administration threatening Iran.
Manukyan believes that pragmatism will prevail over emotions and the
USA will not start hostilities against Iran. However, it cannot be
ruled out that the USA will make certain preparations for this kind of
action. In that case, a difficult time will start for Armenia's
Foreign Ministry, as the Washington administration will try to win
over all the South Caucasus countries in order to gain support in the
region, he said.
"But I think that this will not happen," the MP said.
