Armen Grigoryan calls Armenia's EU membership unrealistic

Former Security Council Secretary Armen Grigoryan published an article titled "The Illusion of EU Membership" on November 11. In his view, Armenia's EU membership is not realistic under current geopolitical conditions, and steps in that direction could deepen dependence on Russia. Grigoryan noted that every attempt to move toward the West has met with stronger pressure from Russia. The article was published about three months after he left office.
