Armenian experts believe U.S.-Iran war avertable

Director of the Institute of Oriental Studies of the RA NAS deemed military operations of the U.S. and its allies against Iran possible to avert.

“There are no objective reasons for launching a war against Iran. Its nuclear program serves exclusively peaceful purposes,” Ruben Safrastyan said.

Deputy director of Noravank Foundation, in turn, noted that Iran has a more powerful army and a larger number of population than Iraq. According to Sevak Sarukhanyan, Iran will use all its resources to resort to retaliatory measures in face of a military operation.
