Hamlet Matevosyan. Relations Between Russia And Armenia are important And special, because the parties really need each other, told in the first day of the week, the participants of the video conference Moscow - Yerevan on the topic: " Russia - Armenia: Relations at the present stage ".
" Relations Between Russia And Armenia are fundamental. We need each other, And not Only in the economy, " said Director of the Center for public policy research, head of the Caucasus Department of the Institute of CIS countries Vladimir Evseev." If We, regardless of what happens in the Eurasian economic space, will continue to develop bilateral Relations, will achieve the greatest results, " He added.
according to expert reviews, the Russian-Armenian bilateral Relations should be strengthened regardless of Eurasian integration." we must strengthen the Armenian-Russian bilateral Relations, As what happened in Nagorno-Karabakh in the last month of summer, can happen a year later. We must be ready to make an adequate response to such events As the repetition of these events may be: there are figures that quite would like confrontation, " said the specialist." Only strengthening friendly relations may prevent such danger, " he added Evseev.
at the end of July - beginning of August in the area of conflict Between Armenia And Azerbaijan over Nagorno-Karabakh again very quickly worsened the situation. On both sides many times violated the ceasefire regime, which led to casualties. The tenth of August was soveshenee in Sochi of the presidents of Armenia, Russia And Azerbaijan, which resulted in the discharge position on the Armenian-Azerbaijani contact line.
Evseev also expressed concern that Georgia, Azerbaijan And Turkey in the last period of time attempt to create a military-political Union, which can be a serious danger not Only Russia, But also Armenia." Yes, And in truth, at present this Union amorphous, But, for example, in Azerbaijan there are talks about what to specified military-political Union is necessary to connect the Turkic countries, And called for at least two - Kazakhstan And Kyrgyzstan ", - said the expert.
The meeting of the Ministers of defence of Georgia, Azerbaijan And Turkey in a trilateral format was held on August 18 in Nakhichevan.
" It is clear that the parties (Armenia And Russia) are obliged to go the way of enhanced cooperation in the security sphere, " said Evseev.
As said the Director of the Armenian branch of the Institute of CIS countries Alexander Markarov, the spectrum of relations Between Armenia And Russia is in the sphere of political, military, strategic, economic, cultural And educational cooperation." Seriously perceived role of Russia in the region, in the framework of the negotiation process on Nagorno-Karabakh. And the fact that the Meeting in the last month of summer this year in Sochi has led to the reduction of tension (on the Armenian-Azerbaijani contact line), underlines the role of Russia not Only in bilateral relations But also in the whole spectrum of regional cooperation, " said Makarov.
He noticed that in the Russian Federation are the largest foreign direct investments in Armenia And the growth of these investments is of a permanent nature." along With this, Russia is one of the main trade and economic partner of Armenia ", - said the analyst.
Markarov also predicts that integration projects are required to create new dynamics not Only of the Armenian-Russian relations, But also to increase the positive trends in relations With Belarus And Kazakhstan."
" Armenia's participation in the Eurasian economic Union is positive, however as long as I don't see that, because it can give a serious effect in the coming year, as the Eurasian integration processes have the ability to slow down due to processes associated With the Ukrainian crisis, And other issues, " warns Evseev, noting that now there are objective reasons, the deterrent of the Eurasian integration.
According to the expert, the process of Eurasian integration " will seriously affect the How will the events unfold around Ukraine ".
He said that China also promotes their integration projects, such as the Great silk road." It turns out that on one And the same space run two integration processes with participation in practice the same countries, " - said the expert, adding that in these conditions the Eurasian economic Union will be obliged to assert their desires." for this reason, to say that the Eurasian economic Union will be to develop quickly, I Only did, " said Evseev.
however, the General Director of the Center for political conjuncture Sergey Mikheev believes that the problems And obstacles were always, they exist And will be, one way or another the process of Eurasian integration will be developed." Terms have the opportunity to move, the rate will be adjusted, But moving forward will be, " He said.
the analyst reviews, contradictions Between the countries of the Customs Union, of course, there are, for example, provisions in Ukraine, But they are not critical, because If it had happened differently, Belarus And Kazakhstan would not sign the Treaty establishing the EAEC." 'd find a lot of reasons And walked. But this is not the case, As And Belarus, And Kazakhstan are well aware that they are potential candidates of the " color revolution " And, If you turn up the convenient excuse that the West will not miss, " explained Mikheev.
