BELGIUM (RFE/RL)–The normalization of relations between Armenia and Turkey will foster closer cooperation between NATO and Armenia and improve its image in the ex-Soviet republic, an official from the U.S.-led alliance said on Tuesday.
“I think that with the warming of Armenia’s relations with Turkey, the alliance’s [cooperation] opportunities in the country will increase, Zbigniew Rybacki, a NATO liaison officer for the Caucasus, told a news conference in Yerevan.
Rybacki argued that many Armenians still mistrust NATO because of their pro-Russian sentiment and Turkey’s membership in the alliance. “Certainly, the not-so-good perception of the alliance within Armenian society has been affected by the lack of relations between your country and Turkey,” he said. “Turkey is a member of NATO and the Armenian population, having this in mind, perceives the alliance through relations or lack of relations with Turkey.”
“Therefore, I believe that as soon as you establish diplomatic relations and open borders with Turkey, in some time — it’s not going to happen very soon but in some time — the perception of your population of the alliance will be much better than now,” added Rybacki.
Here now it comes, the second episode of the Plan.
First, there will be no “cooperation” between NATO and Armenia, because they are not equal partners. But, after becoming a member, there will be full obedience expected from Armenia whatever is the nature of an order issued.
Second, like in any military system, there will be “dedovshchina”. Armenia, as a freshman, will be constantly kicked off, humiliated and intimidated.
Third, NATO’s third or fourth level officer gives assurances and Armenia is buying it for giving up Artsakh? Is it a just coincidence that NATO-people are in Armenia, when time came to destabilize the country and force fast “solution” to Artsakh problem?
Hey, advisors to the Armenian President, wake up!
Armenia becomes a vilayet of Turkey. It is clear that the situation is out of Armenian President’s control. As a result of Zurich’s Protocol Armenia dropped his political credit to zero. This means, no political power. Armenia loses its independence, if Protocol is ratified. Armenia becomes a vilayet of Turkey. Anything, any country wants will be given away. Azerbaijan will easily grab his piece – Artsakh, from the plate of Turkey. UK, France, Russia, Israel (you name) will not move a single finger. The USA has started working toward that already many months ahead.
Call for resignation of Mr. Sargsyan (Sarkisian).
