The year 2010 is going to be decisive for Armenia in every respect.
However, the first major political event is the consideration of the
Armenian-Turkish protocols by the Constitutional Court. Members of the
`Heritage' faction are worried about the issue.
`Unfortunately, there have been many mistakes with regard to both the
Armenian-Turkish relations and the Karabakh issue. It's obvious today
that the international community urges to solve both issues, often not
caring about the fairness and legitimacy of the solutions. The
developments are going to be rather fatal in 2010,' says Raffi
Hovhannisyan, founder of the Heritage Party and ex-Foreign Minister of
Armenia.
According to Raffi Hovhannisyan, the Armenian-Turkish protocols will
have a great influence on the domestic political life in Armenia this
year.
MP Victor Dallakyan considers that if the Armenian-Turkish protocols
are not ratified, it won't be fatal for Armenia. `In case no progress
is registered in the Armenian-Turkish relations not through Armenia's
fault, it's Turkey that will find itself in a hard situation. The
countries, which have called for normalization of Armenian-Turkish
relations without preconditions and within a reasonable timeframe,
i.e. the United States, the EU member states and Russia, may also find
themselves in a difficult situation. If the process fails, Armenia
will have no diplomatic or problems connected with its international
image,' Victor Dallakyan considers.
MP from the Orinats Yerkir faction Khachik Harutyunyan attaches
importance to the developments in the economic and social spheres in
2010. He considers that the consequences of the global crisis are
going to be milder this year.
