News - Armenia parliament speaker: We are trying to defend our country by all possible means

We are sure of one thing that with this option, we have obvious problems, and the security system does not work and has not worked. National Assembly speaker Alen Simonyan Alen Simonyan announced this on the air of the Public Television Company of Armenia—and responding to the remark that if the Russian border guards leave Armenia, Turkey will replace the Russians. "Now let's continue to ‘drive’ with the same ‘car’ without ‘brakes,’ hoping that we will press on [the ‘brakes’] and that process will stop for a moment. We constantly ‘pressed,’ turned to Russia, turned to the CSTO, went once, asked, were asked, we begged, said we are ready for anything, we brought a paper, said there is something like this here. Isn’t it obvious that this one doesn't work? Now we are trying to defend our country by all possible means, and it seems to me wrong to accuse us of that," added the speaker of the Armenian parliament.
