Russia needs Armenia just as much as Armenia needs Russia, Giro
Manoyan, Director of the ARF bureau's Hay Dat and political affairs
office, told a news conference in Yerevan when commenting on the
letter of writer and publicist Zori Balayan to Russian President
Vladimir Putin.
`Zori Balayan at least cannot be blamed for constantly changing his
view - he has been holding this view for more than 25 years.
Surrendering Artsakh to Russia is not the matter at issue. Zori
Balayan constantly emphasizes Pan-Turkist danger. We disagree with him
over the liquidation of that danger - for this, Armenia should be not
an `attachment' to Russia, but a strategic partner of Russia. Russia
needs Armenia just as much as Armenia needs Russia,' Manoyan said.
