The Armenian society is naturally focused on the fact that Serzh
Sargsyan visiting Moscow to attend the CIS and CSTO summits did not
meet with Vladimir Putin, which is particularly interesting in the
sense that Putin met with the other presidents attending the summit,
while Sargsyan met with Medvedev.
Perhaps, Russia's attitude thus shows its dissatisfaction with
official Yerevan.
Why is Russia and Putin in particular dissatisfied? Did Putin not want
to meet with Serzh Sargsyan because Sargsyan didn't pay attention to
Kocharyan-Putin meetings in the election period or maybe because he
didn't yield before the intention to take the majority?
Perhaps, Putin decided to ignore Sargsyan in exchange of his ignorance
of Putin-Kocharyan meetings about which the office of the second
president kept informing actively.
Sure, it is not an unimportant event when the leader of such
a superpower like Russia expresses dissatisfaction of Armenia's
authorities. Taking into account the economic dependence of Armenia
on Russia, perhaps, any wave of the mood of the Russian authorities
is important.
What has so far changed for Armenia thanks to the regular meetings
with Putin? What have these meetings given to Armenia besides of the
permanent reproduction of the ruling system?
Perhaps it is time that Russia is a little dissatisfied with Armenia
and that Armenia finds strength not to pay attention to it? Let Russia
think over missed meetings instead of Armenia which makes apocalyptic
records after each such fact. After all, it is time to make it clear
to Russia that Armenia is not an alternative, but it has other ways
to pass and can do that.
Only this way, it will be possible to change Russia's attitude
towards Armenia making it not to consider our country an outpost,
but a valuable partner and that if necessary they will need to make
concessions not to lose the partnership.
Sure, for this it is necessary that Armenia doesn't do adventurism,
but along with talking to Russia with its head high, it fulfills
systemic reforms to be supported when dealing with Russia.
On the other hand, there can be some difficulties, problems, even
provocations by Russia to make Armenia be humble. It is necessary to
be ready for this too. In the end, the issue is not the Armenia-Russia
relations, but Armenia's sovereignty, in other words, re-independence
and reconstruction of relations with Russia and the whole world from
this position.
Consequently, it is also necessary to be ready for possible blows from
Russia and be ready in wider possible consensus of the society. Since,
if there is the consensus of the society on this issue, Russia
will abstain from global punishment, understanding that that is an
ineffective method.
But, on the other hand, in order to come to consensus on any issue,
the power never form the necessary atmosphere not providing any
strategic proposal or project to the society, but on the other hand,
instead of a clever, educated person, an opposition member, a lady who
called to support Putin at the election may appear in the parliament.
These realities show some support to the soviet-Russian conspiracy
rather than the possibility of principled consensus for the opposite.
