YEREVAN. – The foreign policy of Armenia’s incumbent President Serzh Sargsyan is quite balanced and realistic as compared to the foreign policy platform of opposition Heritage Party Chairman, former FM Raffi Hovannisian—who is declared runner-up to the winner, incumbent President Serzh Sargsyan, as a result of the presidential election that was conducted on February 18, but who claims to be the real winner in the vote. Armenian Analytical Centre on Globalization and Regional Cooperation Director, political scientist Stepan Grigoryan said this during a press conference on Thursday.    

“The West does not feel a need for change in power in Armenia; this is due to the foreign policy orientation and the policy of the serving President. Europe and the US have quite a positive attitude towards Serzh Sargsyan. But the internal matters in our country should be resolved solely by us,” the analyst noted.
