June 21, 2013 | 14:25
YEREVAN. - Russia does not wish and does not intend to lose Armenia,
since it is fully confident that official Yerevan "will not flee
anywhere."
Political scientist Ara Papyan said the abovementioned during a press
conference on Friday, commenting on the information about Russia
selling land weaponry to Azerbaijan.
In his words, the selling of weapons will not cause a resumption
of hostilities at the line of contact between Azerbaijan and
Nagorno-Karabakh.
"A war is inconvenient for the West because, regardless of the outcome
of the war, the BP Company alone will suffer great losses. But we
should not forget that our strategic partner, Russia, supplies
arms to our enemy [i.e., Azerbaijan], which can be calamitous,"
the analyst stated.
In Ara Papyan's conviction, if the hostilities resume, Russia will
appear in an advantageous position and it will proposition Armenia
to make a choice, and, naturally, the choice will be made in Russia's
favor.
