Today the Parliamentarians were interested in the possible losses
of Armenia due to the tension in the relations between Armenia and
Georgia. Politician Hmayak Hovhannisyan blamed the Government for
not doing everything possible for the interests of our country.
"We are too kind towards our Southern neighbor. We are member of the
Collective Security Treaty Organization where the responsibilities of
the countries are clearly mentioned. In particular, when Azerbaijan
threatened Armenia to launch war, Russian Defense Minister announced
that in that case Russia will carry out its responsibilities within the
framework of the treaty. Today we can remain undecided long... we must
make up our mind", Hmayak Hovhannisyan said and added that everything
has its price in politics.
"If Georgia expects us to remain neutral, our neutrality must have its
price. Isn't it high time to ask Georgia to renounce the construction
of the railway Kars-Akhalqalaq? " Asked this question, the Prime
Minister said that he will pass it on to the Government which means
that it will be answered no sooner than in a month.
