YEREVAN. – There are disturbing trends, within Armenia’s politics, which split the people and the political arena into two parts: pro-Western and pro-Russian. Opposition bloc Armenian National Congress (ANC) leader, Armenian National Movement (ANM) party Board member, and First President Levon Ter-Petrosyan said this addressing the 17th congress of ANM.   

“[And] Some politicians state that Armenia should choose between the West, [and] US, and Russia. But who said that is where the truth lies?” the ANC leader asked.  

Also, Levon Ter-Petrosyan stressed that, stemming from the interests of the country, provisional alliances are made among political forces.

“[But] Armenia should be neither pro-Western nor pro-Russian, but at the same time it should be neither anti-Western nor anti-Russian,” he stressed.
