Armenia needs independent centers to project the status of regional
and world energy markets, General Director of ArmRosgasprom closed
joint stock company Karen Karapetyan said at a seminar in CE Yerevan
School of Political Studies.
Own information system is required to ensure reliable and secure
energy supplies and to thoroughly study global energy processes that
influence Armenia and its partners, he said.
According to Karapetyan, today all countries of the region need an
improved level of informational support for initiatives of political
and business elites in energy sector. A stable "power-business"
feedback is needed, he said stressing the necessity of a situation when
creative plans and projects of the business elite receive professional
support from informational environment, which creates the required
background and motivation for the political leaders to establish most
vital and important development projects.
According to Karapetyan, this interaction should help create comfort
conditions for mutual integration of the regional energy programs.
Each country, undoubtedly, chooses its system and development model
on its own for meeting its energy security needs, but none takes into
account the trends and projects available in neighboring countries
where wide opportunities for interaction and a huge framework for
optimizati on of national energy sectors exist, Karapetyan said. This
is caused by the fact that informational support of all energy
projects - be it national or regional - is almost fully politicized
and that each country is guided by a concept of maximum independence
and self-sufficiency in energy sector, he said.
