Azerbaijani hydrocarbon cast doubt upon effectiveness of
Armenian-Russian strategic partnership which may hardly be called such,
deputy chairman of the opposition Heritage party, former member of
the parliament, Stepan Safaryan, said at today's press-conference.
He said that Azerbaijani sabotage actions at the Armenian-Azerbaijani
border and Russia's silence, although it had taken a duty to ensure
Armenia's security, has revealed the true core of this co-called
partnership. "In all probability, Azerbaijani oil and gas have done
their business. For this reason, the Russians did not interpose in
the situation", - Safaryan said.
He also added that the USA also doubts about the ability of the
Russians to preserve stability and security in the South Caucasus.
Moreover, the recent statements by US Secretary of State Hillary
Clinton about new ways of the Karabakh conflict settlement are evidence
of the fact that Washington does not trust in the new president of
Russia, Vladimir Putin, and does not want Moscow to keep leadership
in the intermediary process.
