LEVON TER-PETROSIAN'S INTERVIEW TO RIA-NOVOSTI
To the question "Why has the former president returned to politics?" Levon Ter-Petrosian mentioned, "for all the values that we were struggling in 1990s today are distorted and the country is on the wrong way. I mean the geopolitical situation that didn't become better, and Armenia's economic and political isolation has deepened during the last 10 years".
Touching upon the Karabakh issue the former RA president mentioned, "...Status quo is a correlation of forces for me. The situation is not the same as it was 10 years ago. Today Azerbaijan develops due to oil-dollars, and consequently it has both political consequences and strengthening of armed forces".
Though Levon Ter-Petrosian carries conviction that today Azerbaijani armed forces cannot solve the problem, he insists, "Azerbaijani future progress and Armenia's slow development is a fact".
At the end of the interview he mentioned, "If the authorities declare their results of elections, we will protest it by every legal means: permanent demonstrations, rallies, court cases and pressure on international observers".
