/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Moscow has recently hosted a conference on "Prospects
of New Security Structure in Europe: Russia and NATO". The event
organized by Just World Institute and German Friedrich Ebert Foundation
was attended by Head of Russian-Armenian Cooperation NGO Yuri Navoyan.

Discussion focused on new security structure in Europe, Russia and
NATO’s role, European Security Treaty, as well as pre-electoral
situation in Ukraine in terms of Russia’s security, drug trafficking
threats from Afghanistan and SCO’s role in ensuring regional security.

Touching on security in Caucuses, Navoyan dwelled on Armenian-Turkish
relations and Karabakh settlement process. Particularly, he pointed out
that certain clauses in RA-Turkish Protocols and Turkey’s attempts to
coerce Armenia into concessions complicate Karabakh settlement process.

At the current stage of international relations, Russia and West are
seeking to demonstrate their joint result in resolving one of the
region’s most complicated problems, Navoyan finds. Such situation,
according to him, may lead to inadequate decisions and pressures,
creating new challenges.
