YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 7, NOYAN TAPAN. Formations of non-state character,
in particular, non-recognized states, pose more danger for regional
and global security than states with their armies, traditions,
membership to UN, etc.
Gevorg Poghosian, the Director of the Institute of Philosophy,
Sociology, and Law of the RA National Academy of Sciences, said on
February 7, at the international conference "The Countries of the
Caucasus and Middle East as parnters in the process of formation of
a regional security system."
In his words, the main failures of the idea of establishment of peace
in the regions proceed from the existing perception of already changed
world order.
"Our idea that security is based on states and interstate agreements,
certainly, is right, but it has become obsolete and today such an
understanding of regional security fails," G. Poghosian stated.
He mentioned that the current world processes are evidence of the fact
that growth of the number of extra-state formations continues. "We
do not mean giving them some status: be it state, international
or interstate. We mean the necessity of discussion and solution of
the problem with what status these formations will be involved in
the security system." In his words, if that problem is not solved,
the world will be always faced by risks and threats.
In G. Poghosian's opinion, the issues of how these formations will
be involved in the system of collective and regional security should
be discussed and solved at the level of the biggest international
organizations: UN, NATO, and others.
