ARMENIA REFUSED NPP AND SATELLITE NOT TO HURT RUSSIANS
Armenia could have cooperated with the United States over the
construction of a new nuclear reactor, communication satellite project,
civil aviation, said the ex-charge d’affaires to the United States,
ex-head of the Military and Political Department of the Armenian
Foreign Ministry, Washington-based political scientist Armen Kharazyan
says.
“This is not imagination, all the mentioned issues have been
considered with the United States over the past 15 years but Armenia
has continuously avoided proceeding with these matters and entering
into deals with the Americans. The reason, I think, was psychological
(Cold War stereotypes, reluctance to “hurt” Russians),” he noted,
adding that as a result no serious project has been implemented in
Armenia by any serious American company,” the newspaper reports.
