    ARMENIA MUST TOUGHEN POSITION ON SYRIAN ISSUE - RUSSIAN EXPERTS

    YEREVAN.- Armenia must toughen position on the Syrian issue and
    strictly oppose any military interference into the country, expert
    of the Institute of CIS states Mikhail Alexandrov said in Yerevan.

    He considers in long term perspective the current situation in Syria
    will have negative consequences for the entire region and Armenia
    in particular.

    The experts gathered at the Monday press conference shared the opinion
    that development of Syrian scenario is a stage of preparation for
    the final target- Iran.

    "The West is targeted at Iran and plans to use Azerbaijan as a possible
    platform for the attack on the Islamic Republic.

    Nagorno-Karabakh may be viewed by the West as price to be paid to
    Azerbaijan," Alexandrov said.

    He is confident that currently the U.S., EU and their allies are
    supporting Azerbaijan, playing along when the matter concerns Karabakh.

    In his turn Andrey Areshev, expert at the Institute of Political and
    Social Studies of the Black Sea and Caspian Region, said Russia's
    position on Syria differs radically from the stance of the Western
    states.

    "Destabilization in the South Caucasus is not in the interest of
    Russia. Meanwhile, West's actions lead South Caucasus to the same
    platform with so-called Great Middle East which is full of violence,"
    Areshev emphasized.
