Part of main gas pipeline supplying Armenia with Russian gas will  come under Azerbaijani control - political scientist

ArmInfo. As a result of the surrender of the territories of Armenia, part of the main gas  pipeline supplying the republic with Russian gas will come under the control of Azerbaijan.

Political scientist, Doctor of Political Sciences Vahe Davtyan stated  today at a rally of the "Tavush for the Motherland" opposition  movement.

According to him, the Armenian authorities are already taking steps  to change the direction of the gas pipeline. We are talking about  laying 15 km of new gas pipelines, which is associated with more than  serious financial costs. "But let's leave finances aside today and  turn to another issue, namely: Baku is creating additional levers to  put pressure on Yerevan. At any moment, Azerbaijan can prevent gas  supplies to Armenia,"  said the political scientist, adding that if  the ongoing policy of enclaves continues on the southern borders of  the country, Armenia itself will become an enclave, since the use of  the Iran-Armenia gas pipeline, the power line connecting the two  states, etc. will be in question.
