Very simplystic write up, based on knowledge not directly from the ground but based on western distorted thesis.. Western formula to break Georgia from Russia collapsed and same would happen in Armenia, because of very deep people to people relationship, also like Georgian economy, Armenian economy heavily linked and dependent on Russia. For the west to break those links is almost impossible. West can never be a substitute to Russia in this part of this world. In Ukraine West succeeded partially because of the close link of Western Ukrainians to fascist Germany historically. US along with NATO allies based their geopolitical games on support from west Ukrainians. And it looks like now USA with its NATO allies at best would be able break Ukraine in two or more number of parts. Western strategy of buying top leadership along with top corrupt bureaucracy in USSR and subsequently in the CIS countries cannot work in the longterm as it is being proved with subsequent events. In just 30 years how common people in all over CIS countries has become so much anti American, it is simply unbelievable, this can be compared to the Pakistan and Arab world.
