“I think we should do everything for the conflict between Russia and
Georgia not to impact the interests of Armenia. For this purpose we
must have a distinct position in our relations with both Russian and
Georgian partners,” NA Deputy Chairman Vahan Hovhannisyan told the
journalists today.
In the Vice-Chairman’s opinion, it is obvious that Georgia is trying to
do everything for Russia to finally lose its role in Transcaucasian
politics, which is not favorable for Armenia today. On the other
hand, through utilization of the energy factor some political circles
of Russia are trying to become a superpower deciding everything in
the region, which is again unfavorable for Armenia. “The truth is
somewhere between,” Vhan Hovhannisyan mentioned.
