International community wants Libya scenario in Iran - expert

PanARMENIAN.Net - International community strives to have Iran repeat Libya scenario, according to a political analyst.

As Sergey Shakaryants told a news conference in Yerevan, anti-Iranian states are acutely responding to every political event in the country.

“The problem is not whether Tehran is actually developing a nuclear program. Rather, international community is using it as a pretext to achieve a change of power in Iran, a motive so obvious that even western experts do not try to deny it,” Shakaryants noted.

“However, Armenia mustn’t allow use of its territory in a conflict against any country. Many might gain from it, but Armenia will, obviously, lose,” the expert stressed.

On Nov. 8, 2011, United Nations weapons inspectors released a trove of new evidence that they say makes a “credible” case that “Iran has carried out activities relevant to the development of a nuclear device” and that the project may still be under way.

The long-awaited report, the harshest judgment that the International Atomic Energy Agency has ever issued in its decade-long struggle to pierce the secrecy surrounding the Iranian program, has already rekindled a debate among the Western allies and Israel about whether increased diplomatic pressure, sanctions, sabotage or military action could stop Iran’s program.
