ArmInfo. For Armenia, which is one of the critical points where Russian interests meet with interests of USA, Great Britain, Israel and Turkey, within the military- political, economic and humanitarian situation changing fast and rapid, the main target is the issue of effective orientation, independent expert and NKR Ex-Foreign Minister Arman Melikyan says.
" And without understanding which tasks exactly are being solved by the global power centers, which are the exact interests of certain reputable participants of the global political process, Armenian authorities and Armenian society will be unable to respond actual foreign threats adequately. Meanwhile, the criteria of external and internal threats evaluation adopted by the majority of post-soviet countries does not provide the objective estimation of the situation," he mentioned.
The expert describes this fact with the quantitative indicators of the scale, assuming hypothetical risks for any state in a static condition, and with denying the real tendencies and vision of only long term objectives and results, forming the whole geopolitical process.
At that, according to Melikyan, the situation in Armenia is complicated also with the absence of active institutional resources under the disposal of Armenian authorities, which could provide the collection and analysis of the information needed to take proper decisions of strategic and operational kind.
In its turn, this is described by the expert with the inability of state institutional entities to solve such issues or with those being busy with serving to political interests of external patrons controlling them.
"This level of dependence absolutely rules out the possibility for actual authorities to initiate any actions to get own view of processes taking place in our regions and in neighbor areas," the expert summarized.
