Trump unawareness of Karabakh "no cause for concern" - Armenia

Trump unawareness of Karabakh

PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenian Deputy Foreign Minister Shavarsh Kocharyan said on Thursday, November 10 that President-Elect of the United States Donald Trump's lack of awareness about the Nagorno Karabakh conflict is no reason for concern, Panorama.am reports.

"We deal with a stable system with programs and approaches set up in advance. We will certainly get familiarized with the foreign policy to be adopted by the U.S. State Department," Kocharyan told reporters after Thursday’s Cabinet session.

In response to a question about whether the U.S. policy towards our region may change after Trump's victory, Kocharyan said he believes "there is no need to worry. "

The reporters reminded that a few years ago Trump said that he was not aware of the conflict. In response, the Deputy Foreign Minister said that the U.S. State Department is a stable agency with a stable institutional memory.

"A candidate mustn't necessarily have a thorough comprehension regarding all the matters in the world, but he will naturally become well aware of the issue if he engages in studying it," he added.
