Iran needs Armenia more than Armenia needs Iran, political expert
Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan told media Tuesday.

‘Since Iran has no other ally in the region except Armenia, this point
of view becomes irrefutable. For Armenia the way to Iran is a way to
Iran, whereas for Iran Armenia is a way to Europe. In this context,
I think that the relations between our states cannot be damaged by
anything’ he said.

Unfortunately, he said, in the relations of Armenia and Russia ,
Armenia displays too much initiative and aspiration. Sometimes we are
too strenuously strive for good relations with Moscow which allows
our strategic allies in Moscow to call Armenia Russia’s outpost.
