Political analyst: “The authorities didn’t come to senses” (video)
Political analyst Sergey Shakaryants expresses his concern about the united air defense agreement between Armenia and Russia. He thinks that the agreement should have been discussed several years ago, when the negotiation were still underway, “If there were questions, if you had problems, proposals, you should have made them before the negotiations, but it was 2-3 years ago. You shouldn’t call into question the document, which seems to be already signed by you and say that it should be discussed again,” he noted, adding that “the authorities didn’t come to senses and didn’t understand the interests of Armenia.” The political expert thinks that for the economic development Armenia should have resorted to the policy of developing relations with the EU and signing the Association agreement, or should have cooperated with Iran, “I, as an Armenian, as the RA citizen, reject any option of getting closer to Turkey, remove from the agenda the option of getting closer to Azerbaijan, and, for example, getting gas from there,” he summed up.
