The experience and ideology of socialism in the integration processes
are not unwanted at all when forming Eurasian area, director of
Noravanq Foundation, Gagik Harutyunyan, said at the international
conference "CSTO and security of EurAsia" held in Yerevan today.
"For instance, Armenia, who knows why, wants to forget its socialistic
past within the USSR, forgetting all its numerous positive sides.
Meanwhile, there are 38 socialistic parties in 35 countries of today's
Europe. As for China's ruling model, they go on successfully using
the triad that consists of socialism, liberalism and conservatism
based on preserving of national values and identity. The result and
effects are obvious", - he said.
He also added that socialism is not at all associated with a term
communism, although communism also had positive sides. The expert
thinks that the great majority of the Armenian youth sympathize with
Armenia's soviet past. For this reason, stemming from these data,
socialism jointly with other ideologies may be successfully used in
Armenia as well as when forming new integration unions, the expert
said.
The government of Armenia allocated 2,5 mln AMD the Noravanq Foundation
for organizing the event together with the CSTO Analytical Association
which consists of 25 information, analytical and sociological
structures of the CSTO member-states.
