YEREVAN. – Armenia should review its relations with its allies, political scientist Ruben Mehrabyan said at a press conference on Wednesday.

In his words, Armenia’s views on security and the real situation regarding security are in different dimensions.

“Our [Armenia’s] perceptions of the ‘evil’ and the ‘good’ and as to how our allies look at those matters don’t coincide in any way,” the analyst said. “If we [Armenia] consider the sale of weapons to our enemy [Azerbaijan] by the partner [Russia] member of the international military organization [the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO)] as a negative phenomenon, the so-called allies [of Armenia] regard all that as business.”

Mehrabyan stressed that the situation regarding Armenia after the arrest of CSTO ex-Secretary General Yuri Khachaturov, as well as the talks on the Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) issue are due to the whole CSTO crisis.

“The ‘attacks’ on Armenia, though substantial, but they are solely the manifestations of a crisis in relations of the CSTO and EAEU [Eurasian Economic Union] countries,” Ruben Mehrabyan concluded.
