QUOTE(Hosank @ 09/24/06 03:06 PM) [snapback]93294[/snapback] actually, the only country who is profiting from this blocade is georgia...
azerbaijan, armenia and turkey are all suffering...
azerbaijan and turkey, because they cannot manage their economy..armenia, because it could be much better than it is now...
hosank, im gald to have this border cut off. it only makes them look stupid, our economy is blossoming (could get better if it was open but were still on the right track). i mean, i wouldnt want to trade or have economical ties with a communist or facist country...so whats the difference? id rather armenia stay away from dishonest countrys...and you cant get more dishonest and bloodthirsty then turkey!

i don't want to streighthen ties with iran, iranians are islamist commies....
i actually would rather trade with georga, or at least, an opening to the world, this would benifit armenia greatly, trust me, i was there this summer, and i painted a fence with turkish made paint, it came in through georga, it would have been much cheaper for the turks, as well as for the armenians, to have simply sold it over the border. i could litteraly see turkey from where i was

georgia will fall in not too long, too many internal problems, abkazia south ossetia, province of almost entirely armenians, independant sympathies around Batumi. a complete and total cluster ######. like the rest of the region it is a nexus of many cultures and faiths and that always makes for a volitile situation. any form of reliance on that nation as a gatewqy to the outside world is a folley of judgment on the part of armenias government. this is reflected also in the balance of trade between the two nations. the fact that they are closer to america and turkey another.

you are quite right, but remember this, georgia is the ONLY WAY OUT....so we have no choice...but i think georgia is much more stable now than it was years ago..the armenians in the south are actually the only cultureal minority that are not jumpy....and when georgia understands that its future lies hand in hand with that of armenia, we will start to see real progress.
on the other hand ,that is why i keep arguing that turkey and azerbaijan should open their borders...it would benifit everyone...as i said about the paint, it was turkish made paint bought in georgia, used in armenia, if it was sold directly to armenia, there would be much more money left in the turkish manifacturers pocket, but you know turks...they can't see profit if it hit them in the face
