/PanARMENIAN.Net/ If the United States collides with Turkey over
Northern Iraq and simultaneously improves relations with Iran, it
will be the best scenario for Armenia. Actually, under circumstances
Russia’s presence as a security guarantor for Armenia will lose
urgency. We should strengthen relations with Iran, Professor of
international relations and politics of the Universidad de San Andres
in Buenos Aires, Dr Khachik Ter-Ghukassian said in an interview with
PanARMENIAN.Net.
"Iran is a minority in the Islamic world, since it practices
Shi’ism. This state is the potential regional power. Will Washington
have a political force to hold a dialogue with Iran as equals? This
is the core of the problem. How will the balance be maintained between
the Sunnis (al Qaeda) and Shiites?
How will the Lebanese problem be resolved. These are questions that
need exact answers. Under any circumstances, the Armenia-Iran relations
should be apart any shocks in the region," he said.
