Is Armenia with the NATO or with Russia? Did the NATO representatives
ask this question? Let us remind you that Aram G. Sargsyan, the leader
of the Democratic Party of Armenia announced today that the NATO
delegation which arrived in Armenia lately demanded the NA Standing
Committee on Defense, National Security and Internal Affairs to answer
five questions, including this one.
As for what the Armenian deputies answered, Aram Sargsyan advised
to turn to Armen Roustamyan or Vahan Hovhannisyan. That's exactly
what "A1+" tried to do turning to the chairman of the NA Standing
Committee on Foreign Relations, member of the Armenian delegation to
PACE Armen Roustamyan.
"There was no such question. We were asked detailed questions as we
ourselves called on our colleagues to be sincere and to ask all the
questions they were interested in. The question was as follows: How do
you put complimentary policy together with the procedures into the NATO
and Russia? We gave a full answer which was published in the press. We
explained that complimentary policy is dictated by the geopolitical
situation of Armenia and the transitional phase, and this is the
reflection of the situation in the foreign policy of the country".
According to the ARF deputy, the relations of Armenia with the NATO
and with Russia are mutually agreed and acceptable for both sides. "If
there were incompatibility, such relations would not last long".
Has Armenia ever been asked the question by any country or structure
whether we are with this side or with the other? "There has never been
a question of the kind as Armenia joint this or that organization
proceeding from his own interests. That is to say, we accepted
the legislation and the aims. The only organization which imposes
obligatory conditions (of religion, for instance) is the Islamic
conference.
Naturally, Armenia is not member of that structure".
