    Aram Sargsyan. "The cold war will end up in Russia's capitulation."

    August 2 2014


    "The problem has its original cause, the sanctions, which are used
    against Russia, do we consider them justified or wrong and unfair? I
    think they are justified. Russia has taken on the mission to become a
    major geopolitical pole, to which it has neither economic, nor
    democratic, demographic and legal rights and possibilities. In this
    context, it has also involved Armenia and any sanction imposed to
    Russia will have worse influence on Armenia than on Russia," said the
    leader of the "Republic" party, Aram Sargsyan, to the question of
    Aravot.am of what possible developments and consequences will the
    Russian-American confrontation have in Armenia. Recall that yesterday,
    the U.S. embassy in Armenia had released a message warning the RA
    government and businesses that the partnership with Russia imposed
    sanction officials and companies can be risky. This was followed by
    Russian Embassy's answer to Armenia, "It is not appropriate for the
    diplomatic mission to indicate to the authorities of the host country
    with whom and how they should cooperate, especially using by using
    poorly veiled threats in respect of the sovereign state. (...)We believe
    that the business community of Armenia is also able to understand the
    business issues and do not need others' suggestions. We express our
    concern about American attempts to complicate the work of Russian
    business in the Republic of Armenia. All Russian companies represented
    on the territory of Armenia, including "VTB Armenia" bank and
    "Areximbank", are under the jurisdiction of given country, make a
    profit and pay taxes in Armenia and provide employment to the
    significant part of the country population." "In the general context,
    Armenia's economy will greatly suffer from it, starting from the
    transfers coming to Armenia and ending with Russian enterprises that
    were not making investments here and were operated and depreciated to
    throw away and leave, and now, they will not operate them at all.
    Unemployment and so on, which is very bad," said our interlocutor,
    adding that with Eurasian Union, Russia considers itself an
    alternative to European Union by raising a question, "What is the
    alternative? The European Union is a democracy, human rights, free
    judicial market system, competition in the economy, serious financing
    of scientific resources. Which is Russia's alternative to it? Is your
    democracy to have constantly the same life-president, corrupt judicial
    system, monopolies in market economy and having oligarchs? We have to
    make a choice in-between these two. There are many political parties,
    including government and non-government, which see the development of
    Armenia with the Russian path. There are forces that see the
    development of Armenia beyond it, one of which is also the "Republic".
    And what they say the main debate in the upcoming next or early
    parliamentary or presidential elections will be among these forces and
    around this idea." Pursuant to Aram Sargsyan, Armenia does not have
    any opportunity to come out safe from this Russian-American conflict
    in Armenia. To the question of how deep the process will go, our
    interlocutor said, "I think this process of the Cold War, which has
    begun will end up in Russia's capitulation."
