Emma Begijanyan, an expert on Iranian studies, told the correspondent
of 'Aravot' newspaper that during the presidency of Levon
Ter-Petrosyan, Armenia missed an opportunity to establish closer
relations with Iran.
"At that time all the conditions existed for improving the relationship
with Iran, but L. Ter-Petrosyan, not venturing to damage relations
with the West, did not take that step and missed a chance.
Liberals were in power in Russia at the time and they did not interfere
very much in Armenia's internal affairs. Now it is difficult for
Armenia to take independent big steps," E. Begijanyan said.
