ARMEN AYVAZIAN: ARMENIA SHOULD FUNDAMENTALLY RECONSIDER ITS FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC POLICY

YEREVAN, DECEMBER 20, NOYAN TAPAN. Armen Ayvazian, the Director of
the Ararat Center for Strategic Studies, in his speech made at the
expanded hearings dedicated to Armenian-Turkish relations, which
continued on December 20 at the RA National Assembly, said that
"the RA foreign policy, refusing to recognize the Armenian Cause,
continues to radically wrongly estimate the real dangers and the
measures of their suppression." He considers that this isolation
from the strategic reality in the region is fraught with the hardest
consequences for Armenia and the Armenian people.
"Instead of adopting the only possible policy of suppressing the
Turkish-Azeri alliance, vain pacification and playing up to those
wishing to exterminate Armenia, preparing Armenia for one-sided
concessions, pinning hopes on big international players has been
chosen," A. Ayvazian said.
He affirmed that the pragmatism of Armenia's foreign policy is not
disregard of Turkey's obvious hostility, but all-round presentation
of the Armenian Cause, including politically realistic proposals on
territorial compensations. This, according to A. Ayvazian, envisages
complete reconsideration of foreign and domestic policy, centralization
and organization of the whole potential of national self-defence.
