EACH ONE HAS HIS OWN MORALS
Haykakan Jamanak newspaper (20.09.05) has criticized RA Foreign
Minister Vardan Oskanyan's statement referring to the construction of
Kars - Akhalkalaki railroad. In the course of a press conference
Vardan Oskanyan stated Georgia, Azerbaijan and Turkey had no moral
right to construct the road, as they received aid from the US and the
EU.
According to Haykakan Jamanak, Vardan Oskanyan has realized that
Armenia's future is endangered each time when it is out of a current
regional program. The newspaper notes the above - mentioned project
can strike at Armenia's economy.
However, Haykakan Jamanak notes morals have nothing to do with
politics, especially when the matter concerns economic interests.
What is immoral for one party is moral for another one.
Two days ago Azeri President Ilham Aliyev commented on RA Foreign
Minister's utterance. He said Vardan Oskanyan's statement was `quite
amusing' and stressed Armenian lobby could not hamper the railroad's
construction. As for `morals', Aliyev said: `We have got the moral
right to liberate our occupied lands, and we are going to do it'.
