V. OSKANIAN: REVOLUTION DOES NOT THREATEN ARMENIA
"Armenia has in due time overcome the revolutionary spirits and they do not threaten our republic any longer", Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian told journalists. In his words, Armenia prefers stepwise evolutional development to sharp revolutionary changes. The Minister also commented on Ukrainian Supreme Rada statement on possibility of Armenia's joining the GUAM. He noted that the Armenian party has not received a proposal of the kind yet. "For joining any organization it is essential first of all to believe in its principles and goals. GUAM is still in the process of reconsidering its goals and programs; there are too many uncertainties there", the Armenian FM noted, IA Regnum reports.
