Some propaganda background is formed in Armenia and not without the
oppositional efforts, as if unless the Nagorno-Karabakh issue and
the relations with our neighboring countries, in particular with
Turkey, are not settled, Armenia cannot develop. To say that this
approach is absolutely wrong, will not be right. But it is that
much wrong to state that Armenia's development is determined by the
Nagorno-Karabakh issue and relations with Turkey, which is being
skillfully used by the government now. It is above all doubts that
the settled Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and the normalized relations
with Turkey may play a serious role in the development of Armenia,
in other words, in these condition Armenia will have better prospects
and possibilities for development. But, the point first of all is
what we understand by saying Nagorno-Karabakh conflict solution and
normalization of the Armenian and Turkish relations. And what we
understand by saying development.
If the development supposes Armenia to become an oasis of well-being
or an epicenter of well-being where it will be very easy to live in
comfortable conditions, so to this extent, the normalization of the
Armenian and Turkish relations and the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict
settlement will give such opportunities. But, if the development
supposes Armenia to become a country which would be not only a place to
earn and spend money, but also a factor in the regional developments,
an object in politics which decides by itself what is favorable for
it and what is not, so the Armenian and Turkish relations and the
settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict will not provide this,
especially in the form the international society offers it to us.
Here the question occurs: what we imagine by saying solution to the
problem. Is it what we are proposed or we have a proper idea in this
connection, which is based on the development of the country and on
our social-political stances? The worst is that what we are proposed
coincides completely with the ideas of the development of the state
where the most important is to solve the questions relating to the
food, cars and apartments for the public. Of course, it is important to
solve these questions, especially if they become electoral pledges, but
the government is not to solve these questions speculating the social -
political mutated ideas or enhancing this mutation. Moreover, not the
strategical interest should become a payment for daily achievements but
the daily achievements should strengthen the basis of the state. It
is especially dangerous when these two problems oppose each other by
means of propaganda tricks. Now, this danger seems to be coming true.
