Like a small child, Russia is trying to become established by constantly opposing its own identity, Founder and Head of the Modus Vivendi Center Ara Papian said on March. “Have you seen what a child does when he wants to have things his own way? He always opposes and disagrees to behave the way he is told to behave,” he said. Mr Papian accounted Serzh Sargsyan’s recent visit to Moscow for the geopolitical situation in the region. Though he excludes a war between Turkey and Russia, he says in the event of collision Armenia will be directly involved in the war and will be on the frontlines. “Willingly or unwillingly, we shall be involved in hostilities because there is a Russian base here [in Armenia], we have signed a number of agreements with Russia. We should have realized the consequences when we signed those documents,” Mr Papian stressed. The political analyst says no other country but Armenia supported Russia. At the same time, he does not share the view that if we stay neutral, we will be able to avoid that clash.
