YEREVAN. – At the moment military intervention into Syria is not the point, and what happens now may be characterized as measures taken by foreign players to destroy Bashar al Assad’s regime from inside, expert Sergey Minasyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am.

The expert considers the foreign powers are Sunni Arab states, as well as the U.S. and Turkey, which try to cooperate with the Syrian opposition but it is still unclear what it will lead to.

As for the Armenian community in Syria, the expert believes that regardless of who will come to power after Assad, he will certainly be worse for all the ethnic minorities.

Besides, if the regime changes, the Armenian community in Lebanon will increase. Some Armenians may leave for America, France or come to Armenia.
