When asked to comment Russia’s statements that ‘Armenia-Turkey
border’s opening will become an alternative way if the Armenia-Georgia
border closes’, chair of the Standing Parliamentary Committee for
National Security, Defense and Internal Affairs, a member of the ARF
Dashnaktsutyun, Hrayr Karapetyan said: Armenia has its own interests,
while Russia has its ones.
"Russia thinks if Armenian-Turkish border opens – I make doubt, by
the way – so Russia thinks if Armenian-Turkish border opens then we
will be freed from dependence from Georgia. I understand neither why
we must close border with Georgia, nor why we must declare off this
way if the border with Turkey opens," he said.
