Armenian FM: Statement By Azerbaijani President Concerning “Outpost”

ARMENIAN FM: STATEMENT BY AZERBAIJANI PRESIDENT CONCERNING “OUTPOST” EVIDENCE
OF POOR EXPERIENCE

YEREVAN, DECEMBER 21. ARMINFO. The statement by Azerbaijani President
Ilham Aliyev that Armenia is allegedly an “outpost” of Russia
is an evidence of poor political experience of the Azerbaijani
administration, said Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan in
his interview with Armenia TV channel, Tuesday.

In his words, Armenia is a sovereign independent state having fraternal
and partner ties with other states. The minister notes that no one
can dictate anything to Armenia either today or in future. Armenia
is practically the only state in the region to wage an independent
policy, as it wages a complementary policy, and speculations on this
issue “hint me at the approach to this issue in Azerbaijan,” Vardan
Oskanyan states.

It should be noted that earlier, commenting on the statement by
RF Speaker Boris Gryzlkov in Yerevan that Armenia was an outpost
of Russia, Azerbaijani President stated that he though “Armenia an
independent state, while it proved to be an outpost.”
