YEREVAN, MARCH 6, NOYAN TAPAN. "Today a military blow of U.S. upon Iran
becomes inevitable and the Armenian leadership should do everything
for weakening the consequences of this blow for Armenia, at that, both
domestic and foreign resources should be used." Political scientist
Levon Melik-Shahnazarian, head of De Facto information agency,
declared this at the March 6 press conference. Among possible foreign
resources the political scientist mentioned Armenian lobbying in
U.S. In his words, under the influence of Armenian lobbying U.S. will
try to satisfy Azerbaijan's possible demand on compensation for its
participation in operation against Iran at the expense of Iran and not
and the expense of Nagorno Karabakh. As regards the military operation
itself, L. Melik-Shahnazarian said that three possible variants of
delivering a blow upon Iran are considered in Washington. The first
two of them are much more real than the third. The first variant
supposes delivering point blows upon strategic entities of Iran,
the second introduction of split into the multi-national society of
Iran, at that, it is not excluded that the factor of Turkish-language
population making 12-16 mln people will be used. The third variant,
in L. Melik-Shahnazarian's words, is implementation of land operation
against Iran, which is improbable. In the political scientist's words,
the first variant supposes emerging of "a new Chernobyl" near Armenia
and the second will result in outcome of a great number of people
from Iran. At that, it will be impossible to receive and to accomodate
such a flow of refugees in Armenia being in blockade.
