The authorities of Armenia have decided to smoothen relations with Turkey after being defeated in the war. They say unblocking of Armenia will be to the country’s benefit. This is what Spokesman of the Republican Party of Armenia, former Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly Eduard Sharmazanov told reporters today.
Sharmazanov also stated that after all this, the authorities still allow themselves to mock people who have an understanding of geography.
“They [the authorities] say the Meghri-Horadiz railway will link Armenia to Russia. Take a look at the map once and for all — How many kilometers is Meghri far from Yerevan? How many kilometers is Horadiz far from Meghri and from Baku? After all, there is an Ijevan-Kazakh railway. If you’re thinking about cargo transportation, launch the Ijevan-Kazakh railway. Why are you making Armenian taxpayers pay an additional $200,000,000? Is it to make the Turkish dream come true? They also say this railway will make it possible to travel to Iran. Armenia had communication with Iran. Who asked you [the authorities] to transfer a section of the Goris-Kapan motorway to the Turks?” Sharmazanov complained.
