Russia, West unhappy with Armenian President
"The developments in Armenia will have the same effect as ex-President Ter-Petrosian's stepping down in
1998. The protest actions may subside now, but not for very long", says the Director of the Political Innovations
and Technologies Center Mubariz Ahmadoglu. He said that even if the opposition comes to power in Armenia, it will not
change the country's domestic and foreign policy, which will remain pro-Russian, as there are no pro-West leaders
in Armenia.
Ahmadoglu said the current tensions are weakening Armenia. "Both Russia and the West are fed up with
Kocharian's political position". He added that this proves that time is up for the present regime in
Armenia.
