Wings of Unity: Resolution of standoff between US and Iran to impact  Armenia`s security, economy, and future

Wings of Unity: Resolution of standoff between US and Iran to impact  Armenia`s security, economy, and future

ArmInfo.  The resolution of the standoff between the US and Iran will have a direct impact on Armenia's security, economy, and future. This is what David Ananyan,  a member of the "Wings of Unity" initiative and former Chairman of  the State Revenue Committee of Armenia, writes in light of the US's  acceptance of Iran's 10 demands ahead of a two-week ceasefire.

According to him, the region is entering a phase where the  long-standing stagnation of tensions appears to be nearing its end.  As the "Wings of Unity" member noted, the standoff between the US and  Iran, which for several months kept the entire region on the brink of  disaster, is now entering the realm of negotiations. 

"This isn't peace yet, and certainly not a final agreement. But this  is the moment when the language of force begins to give way to the  language of calculation. Iran is speaking the language of maximum  demands, the US is adhering to the logic of containment and control,  but most importantly, the parties have stopped. And when clashes of  this scale cease, that in itself is a turning point," Ananyan is  confident.

At the same time, the politician believes that for Armenia, this is  not just foreign news, but a key outcome that has a direct impact on  the country's security, economy, and future. "If this problem truly  begins to be resolved, not only the balance of power in the region  will change, but also the environment in which we must make our  political and economic decisions," Ananyan concluded.

As a reminder, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi published on  his Twitter page (X) a list of 10 points that the US agreed to for  the establishment of a ceasefire, which will take effect on April 10. 

Specifically, these include: a commitment to non-aggression; On  maintaining Iran's control over the Strait of Hormuz; on agreeing to  uranium enrichment; on lifting all primary sanctions; on lifting all  secondary sanctions; on terminating all UN Security Council  resolutions; on terminating all IAEA Board of Governors resolutions;  on paying compensation to Iran; on the withdrawal of US troops from  the region; on ending the war on all fronts, including the war  against Hezbollah in Lebanon. The US-Iran talks will be held in  Islamabad on April 10 in the presence of Pakistani representatives,  who will act as mediators.
