Armenia may turn out to be more isolated within the next few years.
As the Russian "Nezavisimaya Gazeta" informed, during his recent visit
to Germany, the President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev discussed the
prospects of new pipelines laying through Ukraine with the German
Chancellor Angela Merkel. After the meeting with Aliyev, A. Merkel
noted that new pipelines are presently prepared for operation through
the territory of Ukraine in the direction of the South-Eastern Europe
that, in the opinion of the German Chancellor, will open new
opportunities for closer cooperation of EU with Azerbaijan.
To remind, the project of Iran-Armenia-Georgia-Black Sea gas line
laying was been multiply discussed earlier in Yerevan. However, under
the pressure of "Gazprom", Armenia had to refuse of this project
fulfillment, which has become quite acceptable for Azerbaijan. To also
remind, the both directions of gas lines pass around both Armenia and
Russia.
