Can a state exist without contacts with other states? Such may exist
in the past but in the 21st century it's impossible. What direction
should independent Armenia orient itself to? We addressed 100 citizens
with this question September 25-28.
"Blessed be the moment when a Russian set foot on the Armenian land.
Khachtur Abovyan was right. Russia has always been a sister nation
to Armenia and will remain such", a man of 60 said.
27% of the respondents consider that Russia should be our strategic
partner.
25% of those surveyed consider that Armenia should choose pro-American
line.
"Neither America nor Russia can save Armenia. We must anchor hopes with
Europe only". This the opinion of 20% of the respondents. They suppose
that Armenia should exert every effort to join the European Union
though, in their words, it can happen no earlier than in 15 years.
18% of those surveyed think that complementation would be the most
profitable line for a small country like Armenia.
The survey outcome prove that the attitude of out people towards
Russia has changed during the recent years.
