IRAN UNLIKELY TO LAUNCH HOSTILITIES ON SYRIAN SIDE - ANALYST
August 29, 2013 | 13:24
YEREVAN. - Iran is unlikely to launch hostilities directly on the
side of Syria if a war breaks out, political analyst Alexander
Markarov said.
"It is too early to say with confidence that hostilities will break
out in Syria. However, in the event of hostilities, they can move from
the local to the neighboring country. Iran understands that it may
be the next target after Syria. But, the Islamic Republic is likely
not to interfere into immediate military actions," Markarov said.
Western policy in the Middle East to some extent is affecting Armenia,
he added. However, the Western countries will hardly present claims
because of continuation of cooperation with Iran.
"We all understand the geopolitical situation in which Armenia
appeared. Cooperation with Iran is necessary. On the other hand,
cooperation is conditioned by our foreign policy priorities," he noted.
