SERZH SARGSYAN IS JUST AN EPISODE IN WEST'S TACTICS
Armenia is opened layer by layer
"But again Armenia will choose its path, and there's nothing in the
Customs Union that's going to prevent Armenia from taking the necessary
internal steps that the president, the prime minister and everybody
have publicly committed to take in terms of reform in all the key
sectors," said the U.S. Ambassador John Heffern in an interview with
Radio Liberty, noting that he continues to think that the Western
path would be helpful to reforms in Armenia.
Ambassador Heffern announced that the United States will continue to
support reforms in Armenia. He stated that they are important of all.
In fact, the U.S. ambassador highlights that withdrawing Armenia
from the Russian orbit is of key importance to change of internal
life of Armenia, which will change society's thinking, strengthen
state institutions and give them more independence and will to work
and make decisions proceeding from the interests of the society.
The "bid" on the government of Armenia was a tactical step by
the West. It would be ingenuous to think that Europe or the United
States believed sincerely in the irreversibility of Serzh Sargsyan's
statement, that he would lead Armenia to the developed world. In this
meaning, it is ingenuous to think that Serzh Sargsyan has deceived
Europe or the United States.
This is just an episode of the Western tactics which was not quite
successful or effective. Although who knows the West may have squeezed
the most of this episode. After all, over the past few years the
process of association with the EU has left a trace in Armenia.
The strategy of the West with regards to Armenia is moving ahead
with small steps. The expectations are not great, especially that
a process of figuring out opportunities, will and principles is
underway. In other words, Armenia is given a chance to open up or
rather a situation is created which will not leave Armenia a way out
but open up layer by layer.
After figuring out the country's state, social and political resource,
consequently the potential the West will come up with strategic
decisions or review on the next stage of work with Armenia.
However, most probably it will not take place soon, which is a real
loss for Armenia because it actually loses the prospect of being a
subject in geopolitical processes and remains in the capacity of the
Russian object.
