Time needed to understand U.S.A’s real policy in the region, argues Sarkissian

President of Armenia Armen Sarkissian argues that processes are taking place rapidly, and one must wait in order to understand what the real US policy in the region will be in the nearest times.

The president was speaking to reporters today in response to questions about his conclusions over US National Security Advisor John Bolton’s statements made in Armenia and what kind of a situation the US sanctions on Iran will create in the region and how they will affect the Armenian-Iranian relations.

“I don’t believe that conclusions must be drawn proceeding from any given statement,” the president said. “Domestic, foreign and regional policy is a dynamic process. And, certainly, it’s not only about the Armenia-USA relations, but rather about the USA-region relations. And the regional is very large – it’s not just our neighboring states and Iran, but also USA-Europe, USA-Russia etc. I didn’t personally meet Bolton. I believe and I advise not to draw conclusions too quickly, because processes are rapid, variable, and we ought to wait, see, what the real policy of the US will be in the region in the nearest time,” Sarkissian said.
