You cannot solve problems during geopolitical clashes and rumblings, because everyone's interests are different, and you become a geopolitical "night butterfly," a bargaining chip. Nikol Pashinyan does just that. There are upheavals all over the world. How do you want to build a house of peace in the conditions of such upheavals? How is peace possible in one region, if there are bloody geopolitical wars in other regions of the world? Armen Ashotyan, vice chairman of the Republican Party of Armenia, told NEWS.am.

He noted that there is no talk of peace in any region of the world, the situation has aggravated even in Bosnia, Serbia, Uzbekistan and other places.

"What kind of person should be immoral, so that in the conditions of an earthquake and rumbling, not to run away from the place of disaster, but to build a house on this place?" added the politician.

He reminded that first the announcement of the meeting was about Moscow, then it was changed to Brussels. Yesterday Zakharova stated that the mediating role of the EU is determined by its geopolitical ambitions.

Ashotyan stated that the fact of such meetings becomes a part of the geopolitical collision agenda which cannot be in Armenia's interest since the geopolitical collision in the region is to the detriment of Armenia.

The oppositionist reminded that when the Republican Party was in power, it managed to keep Armenia and the Artsakh issue away from confrontations. The relations between the West and Russia were tense even then, though not to the same extent as now.

"But you can remember the Russian-Georgian war, the tension after the Crimean events, and so on," he concluded.
