We Can’t Be Secure If We Are Lonely

We Can’t Be Secure If We Are Lonely

Our society has poor idea about the processes of Armenia’s integration
into Europe. These issues are being discussed only during seminars
and lectures financed by the international NGOs.

The Yerevan Press Club organized such a discussion on Armenia’s
integration into Europe last week. Various experts, journalists and
NGO representatives participated in that.

Europe’s wave becomes a dominating one in the region of the South
Caucasus. Certainly, initiating the policy of neighborhood, Europe
is first of all concerned in securing its own safety both from
the economic and the military-political aspects. Securing Europe’s
safety from this respect, Armenia and other states unite with the
same guarantees, accepting the values of the European civilization.

Particularly, in respect of Armenia, Europe tries hard to close the
Metsamor NPP, promising to allocate 100 million Euros for creating
alternative energy sources. The EU envisages to spend 7,2 billion
Euros on the programs that are to carry out with various states.

New Neighborhood program has nothing common with the membership to
Europe. So, that is no guarantee that Armenia or another country can
be an EU member state. This factor can be commented in the following
way, too. Europe wants to create a new buffer zone, particularly, in
the South Caucasus, to isolate Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan from
Europe, if needed.
