Armenia Remains Russia’s Only Political Ally in South Caucasus
15.12.2006 15:56 GMT+04:00

/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Russia has failed to elaborate a strategy on the
South Caucasian states and this resulted in indistinct foreign policy
towards these states, head of the center of Caucasian Studies at the
Moscow State Institute of International Relations (MGIMO) Vladimir
Zakharov said in an interview with PanARMENIAN.Net. `I can say that
Russia assumed a strange and temporizing position. Absence of precise
interests in Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia leads to wrong
decisions. With all responsibility I say that Russia has maintained
one political ally in the South Caucasus – Armenia. On one hand it
gratifies but on the other hand it upsets because during the recent
decade our foreign policy and economic relations led not to
development of ties with Russia but worsened them. Hasty decisions of
the Russian government forced the Armenian people and power structures
to turn to other political players,’ he said.

Emil Lazarian: “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
