ANC: Peace that could come to Armenia with Iran`s rise as regional  power has nothing to do with Pashinyan`s false `peace`

ArmInfo. The peace that could come to Armenia with Iran's rise as a regional power has nothing to do with the false "peace" supposedly brought by Armenian Prime Minister  Nikol Pashinyan. Levon Zurabyan, Deputy Chairman of the Armenian  National Congress (ANC), stated this on his Facebook page, amid the  US's acceptance of Iran's 10 demands ahead of a two-week ceasefire.

It should be noted that Zurabyan has been nominated by the ANC as a  candidate for Prime Minister of Armenia, representing their political  party. According to Zurabyan, last night the world, and naturally  Armenia, avoided a major catastrophe that could have occurred if US  President Donald Trump had carried out his threat to "destroy an  entire civilization" against Iran. "The deadline was last night, but  through Pakistani mediation, we managed to secure official statements  from the US, Iran, and Israel regarding a two-week ceasefire, during  which a final peace is planned to be established," the politician  recalled.

Zurabyan believes that if these plans come to fruition, Iran will be  considered a historic victory, having withstood a military attack by  two nuclear powers, as Trump agreed to accept the 10-point document  drafted by Iran as a basis for negotiations. "This completely changes  the architecture of our region and makes Iran a powerful regional  power, and, given its control of the Strait of Hormuz, a great global  peacemaker. Even if this peace fails, Iran has already proven its  military and economic potential, which the superpowers will be forced  to reckon with," the politician is confident.

Moreover, according to him, if this peace is established and  consolidated, one can be filled with optimism regarding the prospects  for establishing peace around Armenia. "It will be possible to say  that, indeed, with the strengthening of Iran, peace will come to  Armenia too. But, of course, this has nothing to do with the false  "peace" allegedly brought by Pashinyan," Zurabyan concluded. Let us  recall that Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi published on his  Twitter page (X) a list of 10 points that the United States agreed to  for the establishment of a ceasefire, which will take effect on April  10. In particular, we are talking about: a non-aggression pledge;  maintaining Iran's control over the Strait of Hormuz; agreement to  enrich uranium; the lifting of all primary sanctions; the lifting of  all secondary sanctions; termination of all UN Security Council  resolutions; termination of all IAEA Board of Governors resolutions;  payment of compensation to Iran; the withdrawal of American troops  from the region; an end to the war on all fronts, including the war  against Hezbollah in Lebanon. The US and Iran talks will be held in  Islamabad on April 10 in the presence of Pakistani representatives  who will act as mediators.
