Geopolitical situation influencing Armenia, Artsakh - MP

ArmInfo.Armenia is in the center of a clash of interests of the power centers, and not only as a result of the actions of world powers, but also of the country's  authorities.  

This was stated on February 3 during the parliamentary  hearings on the draft statement of the National Assembly of the  Republic of Armenia on the situation in the Lachin corridor zone, the  head of the "Armenia" opposition faction, Armenia's ex-minister of  defense Seyran Ohanyan stated.

According to him, all these factors have led to the fact that the  circle around Armenia and Artsakh is shrinking. Ohanyan recalled that  the opposition had convened an extraordinary session of parliament  back in December. It was planned to adopt a statement on the blockade  of the corridor and condemn the actions of Azerbaijan, but the Civil  Contract faction ruling in the country refused to accept it.

The head of the faction noted that the current hearings in the  National Assembly are taking place in a rather difficult geopolitical  situation, which has a serious impact on Armenia and Artsakh.

The Civil Contract faction is not participating the hearing. The  event began with a minute of silence in memory of those who died in  the battles for their homeland. Hearings are held with the  participation of the parliamentary opposition, various public  organizations, and the expert community.
