/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The nature of the Armenian-Russian relations and
the latest developments in the South Caucasus added savor to Dmitry
Medvedev's visit to Armenia, an Armenian MP said.
"Speaking about the Armenian-Russian relations, we proceed from two
basic points. First, it's the centuries-old friendship, which underlies
bilateral relations. Second, it's the policy, which is materialized due
to global developments. The recent events in Georgia highlighted this
approach in the Armenian-Russian relations," Armen Ashotyan, chairman
of the RA NA standing committee of science, education, culture,
youth and sports, said during Yerevan-Moscow TV space bridge today.
Russia is not just a strategic partner for Armenia. Yerevan is
interested in Russia's assistance in the Nagorno Karabakh conflict
settlement process, according to him.
At the same time Ashotyan remarked that "Armenia and Russia do not
satisfy each other's geopolitical needs in the region." "From this
standpoint, the Armenian-European-American and Russian-Turkish-Azeri
flirts should be taken easy, since they complement national interests
Armenia and Russia can't offer each other," he said, adding that
Russia decided to increase its influence on Armenia and Azerbaijan
via active mediation in the Karabakh process.
