In an interview with the daily, Head of Republican parliamentary
group (RPA) Galust Sahakyan stated either Russia or Turkey must have
influence in the South Caucasus.
“Politics has its tasks. There are many people who think Russia’s
mediation is not in Armenia’s interests. These people are sadly
mistaken. In recent years, particularly after the collapse of the
Soviet Union, Turkey and Russia have been carrying on a struggle
to wield their influence in the South Caucasus. It is of benefit to
Armenia that Russia won it,” Sahakyan stressed.
