  • Armenia Cannot Revise Relations With Russia As Long As Turkish Facto

    ARMENIA CANNOT REVISE RELATIONS WITH RUSSIA AS LONG AS TURKISH FACTOR EXISTS

    13:54 * 03.02.15

    Armenia has very few opportunities for maneuvering as long as the
    current geopolitical conditions and Turkey's factor remain, and the
    Stratfor is well aware of that, political scientist Levon Shirinyan
    told Tert.am as he commented on the latest report by Stratfor.

    According to the report, Armenia and Belarus, Russia's loyal allies,
    will revise their relations with Moscow.

    "I think that it is only Stratfor that is better informed that I am.

    Regrettably, as long as the Turkish factor and the possibility of
    closer Russian-Turkish relations exist, our possibilities are limited.

    And this situation has lasted for more than 100 years," Mr Shirinyan
    said.

    The Stratfor report is based on Belarusian President Alexander
    Lukashenko's statement that did not rule out the country's secession
    from the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) if the agreements would not be
    honored. As to Armenia, it shows growing discontent with the conflict
    with Azerbaijan over Nagorno-Karabakh, with Russia playing a key role.

    "I predicted nuclear blackmail, and history has shown the real
    essence of so-called 'Russian will.' they destroy everything to
    achieve their aims."

    Mr Shirinyan advises continuing multi-vector relations with Russia
    and Azerbaijan to seek security guarantees.

    The West does not give Armenia any security guarantees.

    "So we should be most prudent, without coming into conflict with
    anyone, and word with Russia."
