"Fact" daily writes:
"It is a paper, they signed it. We are neither the first nor the last country. This document does not represent anything, like any contract or signed paper, if the parties do not use it," such an opinion in the conversation with "Pasti". says Tevan Poghosyan, head of the "International Center for Human Development", referring to the most discussed, manipulated, perhaps also "advertised" document in recent days, the charter on strategic partnership with the USA.
He reminds: "There is a document signed on November 9, how many points have become reality? There is a document signed in the CSTO, is it possible to use it, the Minsk group, Artsakh should have been there, it was written in the paper: no use of force or threat of force.
It's another piece of paper in which something is written only at the level of good wishes." no.
"If they find something in the document that will be important for US interests, they will use it. The current authorities of Armenia have proven that they cannot use any document in any way. We should put our hopes on Trump.
And there was one main mechanism in Trump's speech. anything will be used with the following logic: What was in that document, why will America benefit from that document? did they help America or did they decide to help Armenia? If they signed that document to help Armenia, Trump doesn't care.
After this, Trump is interested in anything he can use for America. It was more stated in that paper that America will help like this, what good will it do for America? If it will not be useful, then it will not happen during Trump's tenure ", our interlocutor notes.
Poghosyan says, "The outgoing US administration hopes to come back to power one day. What will they say to the voters after four years? For example, they know that there is a group of voters who are Armenians. What do they have to sell them?" with the idea that the latter would choose the Democrats.
They will say that such a document was signed during our time, we will come to power and use it.
So they made that move for themselves in the first place. The next Democrat running for office will have a foothold by saying that there is a document that was signed under them.
They will say that Trump came and prevented it from being implemented, but with this step they will win the Armenian votes, they will not face many problems, etc.
If they tell the authorities of Armenia to sign this document, they will sign it in order to preserve their power.
They signed the paper and they are constantly coming and going to Russia," he claims. After the mutual accusations with the Russian Federation, a few days ago, Ararat Mirzoyan and Sergey Lavrov had an extended meeting and a private conversation, they talked about partnership and achievements.
Our interlocutor is sure that mutual accusations will continue. "A defeated government can only bring new defeats. We must realize this and stop that chain, otherwise we will have a problem.
The best option would be a conscious and voluntary departure of this team. If this is not the case, then we should brighten and darken the day with the existing problems, thinking whether there will be Armenia tomorrow or not."
Some will call these meetings, discussions, visits a manifestation of diversification, which is perhaps one of the most discussed issues on the political agenda of our country in the last few years.
The need for diversification was discussed in economic, military, political and other directions.
For that, you need to have resources, diversification is not a nice word written on paper. What resources does Armenia have for diversification? Can it change geography?
In the framework of this geography, we should look at the issues of diversification. Are the Turks and Azerbaijanis friendly?
The idea of a crossroads is Turkish-Azerbaijani, which has a problem with the conflict of interests in North-South. In North-South, these are the two countries with which you either had to work in the past to have strong relations, or if you are wrong work, then you have a conflict with the west-east.
At the crossroads of that conflict, both with Russia and Iran, and with Turkey and Azerbaijan, how did they decide that diversification should be formed and with whom? if they argue with each other, for example, the USA and Turkey, then they are wrong.
We have so much power that we are going to "fight" between two allies.
In order to diversify, first of all you need to form resources, to form them you must have national unity and realize how you will be able to use the appropriate diaspora in each country for the benefit of Armenia.
But they say, "The Diaspora is no longer of interest to us, and they are deprived of that resource. You don't have financial resources, you can't do anything."
In reality, they continue to threaten the direction that feeds Armenia's economy, with the talk of joining the European Union.
But for that, you had to invest heavily in science, economic development, and production. If you don't work with the Diaspora, where are you going to find those resources? Second, what should you do to boost science? convinced them to come to Armenia and install protolias.
There is an example: a person created a school in Dilijan for our country, but today they don't say a word about it.
If you don't form it, that lovely word will remain on paper. The only diversification that the current government is able to do is through whom it can extend its power seat for one more day.
Today the West must say that we are democratic, we went to the West, tomorrow we have to play with Russia, they call Putin, they give explanations. For now, this diversification works for them," concludes Tevan Poghosyan.
