IRAN DEVELOPMENTS OF PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE FOR ARMENIA - ALEXANDER ISKANDARYAN
15:21 * 01.04.15
The negotiations over the Iran nuclear program that were launched about
two years ago and continue in Lausanne are of paramount importance
for Armenia, political scientist Alexander Iskandaryan told Tert.am.
"Iran is holding great expectations about the negotiations. Reuters
has reported that all the major issues have been settled, and only
technical ones have to be settled. I made sure it is not so, but some
progress has been made given [Russian FM] Sergey Lavrov's statement,"
Mr Iskandaryan said.
Tremendous work is expected to be done.
"This is of high importance for us because lifting sanctions will be
of benefit to Armenia, which is thirsty for available markets. Only
Iran's energy sector is open," the expert said.
The developments in Yemen are of importance for Armenia as well.
"This is also taking place even in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain. This is
a talk about influence in the Middle East," Mr Iskandatyan said.
The Ukraine developments are affecting Armenia because the country
is dependent on Russia-West relations.
