Vahram Atanesyan: Russia Project theoretically feasible

PanARMENIAN.Net - "I think Russia Project is theoretically feasible. But real though it may be, Armenia and Karabakh are very unlikely to join Russian Union, NKR Parliament's Foreign Relations Committee Chair Vahram Atanesyan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.

"Considering tense Russian-Georgian relations which will hardly normalize in visible future, we can rule out possibility of Russia's establishing ties with Armenia via Georgian territory," NKR parliamentarian noted.



Earlier, Italian Limes magazine disseminated information on the so called Russia Project allegedly elaborated by Mr. Putin and Medvedev. A periodical specialized in geopolitics, the magazine reported that the project aimed at re-annexing Transdniestria, South-Eastern Ukraine and Kyrgyzstan to Russian Federation. The project proposes the idea of creating a "Russian Union" with the involvement of Belarus, Central Ukraine, Armenia, Nagorno Karabakh, Kazakhstan and Tajikistan. It also envisages an agreement on a military union with Uzbekistan.
