News - Armenia ruling force MP on US Embassy security alert: No indication of new danger but relaxation of regimen

In any case, the most dangerous thing is to present information incompletely. The US issues relevant security alerts in various countries, and if you pay attention to the previously issued alerts, this was a relaxation of the regimen for certain areas. Vladimir Vardanyan, an MP of the ruling majority Civil Contract Faction and chairman of the Standing Committee on State and Legal Affairs of the National Assembly of Armenia, told this to reporters in the NA Monday—referring to the fact that the US Embassy recently called on its citizens not to visit certain border areas of Armenia, and when asked whether there is a risk of a new escalation in tension.  "Not that there was any indication of a new danger, but on the contrary, there was a relaxation of the regimen in certain areas. Such announcements are regularly made by the US Embassy, you just have to compare it with what has been done recently. Many peoples ask me this question. Perhaps communication is much more important here, so that we clearly understand that this is a common practice. We do not follow, but in many cases similar statements are made in connection with European countries. For example, it is said, avoid being in this city because rallies or labor strikes are planned there. This is a common practice. But since any security issue is very sensitive at us, this issue is also perceived as sensitive," said Vardanyan.
