Armenia
YEREVAN. - Not a single political force could oppose to Russia's
influence on Armenia, said member of European Integration NGO Manvel
Ghumashyan on Tuesday.
He argued that there are three political powers potentially able
to gain seats in the Parliament after elections of 2012 - ruling
Republican Party of Armenia, Prosperous Armenia Party and Armenian
National Congress. None of the three, however, will be able to change
Armenian-Russian relations.
He mentioned the special position ARF Dashnaktsutyun holds in the
parliament, stressing that ADR with its history, traditions and laws
claims to be the example of what a party should be.
According to Ghumashyan, one should not bind the Armenian-Russian
relations with the presidents of countries, since the established
relationship between the Armenian and Russian presidents is artificial.
"Vladimir Putin did not return to politics, he simply never left it
and his influence was always tangible in Russia, which is not true of
Robert Kocharyan. Talks on his return to the office seem groundless
to me," said Ghumashyan.
