"If leave everything as it is, the Armenian-Russian relations will
crack soon so that the strategic partnership of two countries can
give up for lost", Aram Karapetyan, the chairman of the "New Times"
oppositional party, told the "Nezavisimaya Gazeta", Arminfo reported.
According to him, having received from Yerevan everything possible in
its time, Moscow has lost any interest to Armenia. "In fact, Yerevan is
closely attached to CSTO, the Russian companies had purchase and still
purchase everything here - someone buys the plants, someone gains a
profitable building contract: Since there is no interest, there is no
understanding of what happens in this country. The situation can be
brought to the formula: strategic indifference instead of strategic
partnership", Karapetyan says.
In his opinion, the Americans can settle down in Armenia "not with
their investments but with Pentagon radio-locating stations". As
Karapetyan has assured the "NG", Mathew Bryza, the OSCE MG Co-chairman,
not only perforate a new plan of the Karabakh conflict settlement
during his official visit to Yerevan, but also tested a ground for
disposal of two American radio-locating stations in the territory of
Armenia. The matter here is that Washington needs to enter Armenia
like to Georgia before that, with all the following consequences,
Karapetyan said.
