ArmInfo. The challenges to Armenia come not from Turkey or Azerbaijan
but from the country's inside, Director of the Armenian Center
for National and International Studies Richard Giragosyan said
at the international conference "Armenia on the Intersection of
Communications" in Tsakhkadzor.
'All the key players: the USA, Europe and Russia wish to see Armenia
weak but stable. And now Armenia may become both weak and instable
because of the difficult internal political situation. We have
serious strategic relations with Russia against this background,
however, it is necessary for these relations to become balanced and
not vassal. Armenia has always been and will be closer to Russia than
to the USA or Europe, however, Moscow has to balance its stance with
respect to Armenia', he said.
At the same time, R. Giragosyan said Armenia is a key country of the
region and the only country to provide a platform to the USA and Europe
for a dialogue with Iran and Russia. 'It is just Armenia that can help
the West to agree with Iran, and Russia - with Turkey', he resumed.
