A UNION OF 'SECLUDED'?

There has been more information about Armenia and Armenians in the
Russian Media recently. It is connected not only with the death of
Andranik Margarian, or the parliamentary elections, but it seems that
Russia wants to correct its mistake and change its behavior to its
strategic co-worker.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and the first vice-prime
minister Sergey Ivanov didn't come only for bettering the bilateral
relations. Iran was the basic theme of this meeting.
The non-governmental approach to the Armenian-Iranian relations is very
interesting. The other countries, especially countries in the region,
don't like the warm relations between Iran and Armenia and because of
it some of them call these bilateral relations - the union of secluded
countries. Both of these countries are blockaded and because of that
they come together.
Iran ignores the Formula of forbidding the nuclear weapon and Armenia
continues its 'occupation' of Karabagh. Tehran, under political,
economic and military pressure, tries to get allied powers, and
Armenia is one of them. Some countries conclude that Armenia can
become a playing card (a tool of pressure) at the hand of Iran.
