At the same time the Communist Party refrained from concrete statements in this respect. As member of the fraction of the Communist Party of Armenia, Chairman of the Parliamentary commission on health protection, ecology and social issues Gagik Tadevosian, noted "it is necessary to combat terrorism, but one should not ignore the geopolitical situation in which Armenia finds itself being surrounded by Iran, Turkey and Azerbaijan."

Leader of the fraction of "Dashnaktsutyun" party Aghvan Vardanian in his turn considers Armenia should join the struggle against international terrorism "but not to the detriment of its own interests."
