Place of Armenia is in civilization world, in "elite" countries, in eu-nato.

Armenia need to make liberalization, to make professional army and abolish the obligatory service, and need fast reforms and to work with Georgia to join together eu-nato.

We already have enough girly Europeans, we don't need to add the Armenians into their rank!
Besides, Russians will not allow Armenia to join the NATO.

So you say that Armenia is prisoner-slave of Russia?

[Shant]

I do respect your opinion but sorry Armenia doesn't have to join to NATO.

Well, perhaps not, but even if they wanted to do so, the Russians would do whatever it takes to stop them.
By the way, if this entire gimmick is not all about encircling Russia, why don't they ask the Russians to join the NATO?!

Yes and no. Just take a good look at the map, and you'll see that Armenia does not have too many cards to play.
By the way, I wouldn't use the word slave, but there are way too many countries who are dependent on powerful countries!

Exist countries much more smaller than Armenia, but they are much more strong, because they are liberal-neutral and they belong in "elite".

For this reason, Armenia need to join eu-nato.

Why would any sane person want to join a criminal gang like Nato?

HUH!?

Are you sure you are not mistaken Armenia with some other country?!!!

1.Why NATO is "criminal"? Because saved Serbians from the dictator Milosevic?

2.Examples smaller countries than Armenia, who are much more strong: Luxemburg, Baltic republics, Balkan countries(example Slovenia), Malta, Cyprus, etc etc.
