Armen Ashotyan: Armenia hasn't lost information war to Azerbaijan
"Armenia has not lost information war to Azerbaijan. But I should mention some factors. We are not losing the information war, for most part thanks to information resources and Diaspora's efforts. However, we lack state information policy. We often run after events instead of pursuing a preemptive tactic," member of the Armenian National Assembly's committee on European integration, political scientist Armen Ashotyan said in an interview with PanARMENIAN.Net.

"There is no coordination between analytical centers and political leadership. Furthermore, we underestimate the importance of Internet and act as amateurs. Both Armenia and Azerbaijan say that we are neighbors and there is no escape from each other but both pursue a policy that leads to abyss," he said.
