Ruben Safrastian: It is necessary to change foreign policy line of Armenia
Complimentary foreign policy of Armenian has already been outdated, in the new circumstances that are currently developing in the region, it is necessary to conduct a more active and balanced policy, Director of RA NAS Institute for Oriental Studies doctor Ruben Safrastian stated to a press conference in Yerevan. "If Armenia continues in the same spirit, isolation of the country will become stronger. If a war breaks out between Iran and the United States, Armenia will be connected to the world by the only way via Georgia. And in case if Armenia changes her foreign policy line, both enemies and friends will relate to us more serious," the expert stressed. He also noted in case if a war breaks out against Iran, Armenia's policy must rely on international law.
