YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 9, NOYAN TAPAN. "Today such changes take place
in the region that it is rather difficult to orient oneself,"
Ruben Tovmasian, the First Secretary of Central Committee of the
Communist Party of Armenia, said in his interview to Noyan Tapan
correspondent. Armenia, according to him, should carry on very
cautious and balanced policy towards neighboring Georgia at the
same time not damaging Armenian-Russian centuries-old friendship. As
regards the issue of recognition or non-recognition of independence
of South Ossetia and Abkhazia, Russia has left it to each state's
expediency. Today the accent of Armenia's foreign policy, according
to the leader of the Communist Party of Armenia, is absolutely right,
forever together with Russia. He emphasized that the main guarantee
of Armenian people's security is Armenian-Russian friendship.
"Some people try to lower the issue of recognition of independence
of South Ossetia and Abkhazia to the level of market relations saying
that let Russia recognize Nagorno Karabakh and we will recognize the
above mentioned two.
There is no such infantile way of thinking in diplomacy," R. Tovmasian
said.
