Armenia should contribute to weakening of the tension around Iran by
all possible diplomatic methods, but Armenia's opportunities should
not be exaggerated, military expert Artsrun Hovhannisyan said at
today's press conference.
He thinks that if the USA and its western allies decide to deliver
blows on Iran, neither Armenia nor Russia will be able to prevent
that.
"We have repeatedly seen that if the West makes a firm decision, it
goes to all lengths. The military invasion in Iraq in 2003 is direct
evidence of that. At that time Moscow only made critical statements
against the White House Administration. I think today the situation
almost does not differ from that one", the expert said.
At the same time, Hovhannisyan does not think that the military
operation against Iran will be in the near future. Washington will
most likely wait for the parliamentary election in Iran, and
afterwards will take a final decision. "The blows on the nuclear
facilities of Iran may have quite unpredicted consequences and develop
into large-scale military confrontation", he stressed.
