Armenian President Uses Soccer Match In Political Bargain - is the title of the article on RFE/RL. I thought (hoped) that maybe the folks over at RFE had been working too hard, gotten really tired and accidentally republished an old article. But, alas, no! It is current...
This whole thing, I'm inviting you to my party, now you're inviting me but I'm not coming - it reminds of little silly games kids play.
It's as though Sargsyan is a small child in a playground, and he has a ball, and he offers to allow some of the other kids to play with it, just for a bit. But he doesn't realize that these kids are bigger than him, way, way bigger. And at some point, they can just TAKE the ball from him, with or without beating him up. Or they can just beat him up, not take the ball, and go do something else. Or they could just ignore him completely. If this is the best strategy he can come up with, if this is what he calls diplomacy...
Is Sargsyan hoping his Big Brother will come to his rescue when the time comes?
