    DOES ARMENIA WANT TO BE FRIENDS WITH TURKEY?

    Armenia is trying to be close with Turkey. Regnum News-Agency referring
    to the document entitled Armenian commitments within the framework
    of the Individual Partnership with NATO, placed in web-site of the
    Ministry of Defence of Armenia informed. The document says that the
    main purpose of Armenian foreign policy is a full-fledged integration
    to European structures, and also aiming at being close with NATO,
    it intends to activate practical and political cooperation with the
    North Atlantic Treaty Organization.

    The document highlights that allegedly "in the point of relations with
    neighbors Armenia desires stability and security in the region as well
    as a constructive development and improving of these relations. Armenia
    makes efforts aiming at peace regulation of the Nagorno-Garabagh
    conflict and will assist the OSCE Minsk Group."

    It is noteworthy that "Armenia provided to be aimed at regulating
    of relations with Turkey and will be consistent with regulation of
    a constructive dialogue with Turkey, including relations with Turkey
    for these purposes." The document affirms so.

    It is appropriate mention that Armenia is a military-strategic partner
    of Russia, a member of the Organization of Treaty for Collective
    Security, and also a military bastion of Russia in the South
    Caucasus. Because making a curtsey towards the European structures,
    particularly NATO, can mean the policy of double standards. While
    NATO-Russian relationship develops not simple and Russia has been
    always against NATO enlargement to the East, Armenian foreign policy
    looks hypocritical and double-faced. The statement that Armenia
    will assist the OSCE Minsk Group causes distrust, as its destructive
    position and desire to keep status quo is also available.

    Armenian' desire "to be consistent with regulation of a constructive
    dialogue with Turkey" within the context of the demands of recognition
    of "Armenian genocide", and consequently, demands of compensation
    from Turkey, are beneath criticism, in general.
