YEREVAN. - Worsening of the social situation in Azerbaijan and the internal tension in that country may escalate the situation on the border.

Ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) MP Artak Zakaryan, who is also Chairman of the National Assembly Standing Committee on Foreign Relations, told the aforesaid to Armenian News-NEWS.am.

“But we are ready for any events. And the fact that Azerbaijan’s resources will dwindle and that its energy significance for the West and Russia will decrease, is already becoming apparent,” Zakaryan said.  

According to him, after Iran becomes a subject of international economy, Azerbaijan’s economic influence in the region will also reduce. “Besides, Georgia must gradually begin to understand that the harsh dependence from the Turkish-Azerbaijani economic relations can also harm its stable ties with Armenia,” the MP added.
