THERE ARE SOME CONTRADICTIONS

The RF Ministry of Defense Sergey Ivanov who is in the USA by working visit has declared that Armenia is his closest ally where Russian large military supporting exist. At the same time S. Ivanov has assured that Armenia is an independence country and Russia doesn't intend to push to any side. The attentive observer will find some contradiction between the first and second affirmations.

Thatcher is justified

The son of Margaret Thatcher is rather differ from the Armenian pilots who were condemned for supposedly attempt of coup d'etat in Continental Guinea. We should remind the court condemned the captain of the crew to 24 years of freedom, and other members of the crew condemned to 14 years of freedom. Instead Mark Thatcher who pleaded his guiltiness for financing the attempt of coup d'etat was fined about 3 million rands /about half million USD/ and condemned to 4 years of suspended freedom. It is said Thatcher has struck a bargain with the court: he obliged to plead guilty in the last day of the sitting of the court and the prosecutor of Continental Guinea refused demanding imprisonment for him instead. So the unlucky "putschest" will have to pay fine only: "It isn't too big price to join my family. I think all fathers and husbands who are presence here will understand me,"- BBC quoted Mark's words.
Certainly, 500000 dollars aren't a large sum. But 500000$ are a fantastic amount for our pilots who are also someone's fathers and husbands. Even if for the reason that in contrast to the son of the ex-premier of the Great Britain who is engaged in political policy our pilots connected with the coup only for earning money for their families. The RA Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanian declared during the interview that he was leaving to Continental Guinea in the middle of February and that the authorities of that country are ready to meet him. If they offer such kind of bargain which is too suspicious Armenia can't afford to pay 500000$ for its every citizen. Therefore our pilots probably will have to serve time for the crime they didn't commit. When Thatcher who confessed to implication will enjoy the freedom. Yes, it isn't right. Alas! It is too usual when the organizers of the crime who are rich and have powerful protectors get out of the punishment and the innocents suffer in general. In this case Armenia as a state is the suffer. As even if our pilots were the sons of our current Prime Minister they wouldn't be forgiven anyway.
