By announcing its readiness to join the Customs Union, Armenia
shut its entry to the European Union, but not locked it, and there
is still time to correct the wrong policy, Richard Giragosian,
political scientist, Director of the Regional Studies Center (RSC),
told reporters on Friday.

According to him, this decision is beneficial to Russia, but the
entire Armenian people will suffer from it.

“With the decision which was made in 4 days Armenia lost its
achievements of 4 years with the European Union. The EU was taken
aback by this decision. As a result, the EU will view Armenia as less
important, less reliable and less prepared. This is a loss Armenia
needs to retrieve,” Giragosian said.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
