ARMENIA IS THE VASSAL OF RUSSIA: ARMENIAN POLITICIANS

Armenia's vassal policy has resulted in its full dependence on Russia,
says the member of the board of the Armenian National Movement party
Aram Manukyan.
He says that today Armenian-Russian relations are in real crisis.
True cooperation should be based on dignity rather than grovelling.
The leader of the Armenian Democratic Party, MP Aram Sargsyan says that
corrupt authorities cannot be independent. He notes that the Assets
Against Debts program - when Armenia gave 5 strategic facilities to
Russia - has made the country strongly dependent on the Russians.
If the Armenian authoirites are ready to give their strategic
facilities, why should Russia refuse to accept them? wonders MP,
political expert Hamayak Hovhannissyan. The Russians have a good
proverb: accept when you are given, run when you are beaten. Russia has
always been present in the South Caucasus, so it makes no sense talking
about its growing presence. The point is that though remitting $40
bln debts to third countries Russia has forced Armenia to pay its $100
mln debt to the last penny. This is the result of Armenia's policy.
