YEREVAN. – There are disturbing trends, within Armenia’s politics,
which split the people and the political arena into two parts:
pro-Western and pro-Russian. Opposition bloc Armenian National
Congress (ANC) leader, Armenian National Movement (ANM) party Board
member, and First President Levon Ter-Petrosyan said this addressing
the 17th congress of ANM.
`[And] Some politicians state that Armenia should choose between the
West, [and] US, and Russia. But who said that is where the truth
lies?’ the ANC leader asked.
Also, Levon Ter-Petrosyan stressed that, stemming from the interests
of the country, provisional alliances are made among political forces.
`[But] Armenia should be neither pro-Western nor pro-Russian, but at
the same time it should be neither anti-Western nor anti-Russian,’ he
stressed.
