Yerevan, 30 June: Armenia can become a platform for cooperation on
addressing the situation in Iran, an expert of the Jane's Information
Group, Richard Kirakosyan, said at a conference in Yerevan. The
conference was dedicated to the situation in Iran.
The US expert thinks that the current circumstances have three aspects:
Iran's relations with Azerbaijan and Russia in the context of Armenia's
security. The expert said that the positions of Moscow and Washington
with regard to Iran are more similar than on other issues. He added
that Iran can became a key to regional stability. Kirakosyan expressed
his worry about Iran-Armenia relations. He said that the Iran-Armenia
gas pipeline mainly refers to relations between Iran and Russia. Thus
the expert regards this as a display of Armenia's dependency from
Russia. At the end, he expressed his fear of military operations in the
region.
"This is dangerous from all points of view," the expert said.
The conference was organized by the Armenian centre for strategic and
national searches. Representatives of the USA and Iran embassies in
Armenia also participated in the conference.
