IS A ‘VELVET’ REVOLUTION RIPE IN ARMENIA?
Head of Russia’s Institute for National Strategy, Stanislav
Belkovski, drew the sequence diagram of “velvet” revolutions in the
CIS states. Regnum agency informs that he pointed out the countries
where necessary conditions for a revolution are ripe. Those states are
spitted into 3 risk zones and the most risky zone includes Armenia,
Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan.
He thinks that use of force in Uzbekistan has postponed the revolution
for two years. The perfect conditions for a “velvet” revolution
are in Armenia, he thinks. The second risk zone includes Russia,
Azerbaijan and the third one – Byelorussia and Turkmenistan.
