Armenia’s ex-minister of foreign affairs Vartan Oskanian said that
there are all signs of the situation that preceded people’s protests
in Arab countries.
Armenia, like Arab countries, faces political monopoly, poverty,
corruption and unemployment, Oskanian told a press conference in
Yerevan.
He noted that the events in Egypt, Tunisia and Libya should serve as
an alarm bell for the Armenian authorities.
At the same time Oskanian noted that he does not want Armenia to
witness similar events as in Libya and Egypt.
