"Iravunk": Vance's visit has a state secret component

The “Iravunk” newspaper writes: “In the near future, the visit of US Vice President J.D. Vance to Armenia and Azerbaijan is expected. “Iravunk” found out the opinion of Garik Keryan, a professor at the Department of Political Science of Yerevan State University, a political scientist.

– Opinions are very different, because the visit of such a high-ranking official to Armenia, if I am not mistaken, has never happened before. There was a visit by Nancy Pelosi, the Speaker of the US House of Representatives, once, but I do not remember that there was a visit by the Vice President.

This is, of course, a serious political event. In many research and analytical centers, in political circles, one question is being discussed, what is the purpose of this visit. Of course, there is also a diplomatic, state secret here, which can be known to Armenia and one or three people, but considering the visit from an expert point of view, I can express my opinion.

You know, quite serious efforts are being made on the Ukrainian front to end the war. It is not excluded that in the coming months it will be possible to achieve an end to the war.

Western strategists know very well that after peace on the Ukrainian front, Russia will again turn its gaze to other regions of the Soviet space, since its influence has either weakened or has completely lost it.

It is no secret that Putin's ultimate goal has always been to restore Russian influence in the post-Soviet region.
