Or may be you think that Russia must cooperate with NATO and Armenia must butt with the alliance? To tell the truth, I am glad that some people in Russia consider me as a pro-western politician, because a lot of people in West consider me as a pro-Russian leader. And this is the very conformation of the fact that actually I am a pro-Armenian politician".
