/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Distancing itself from the United States, Turkey's
policy has become more practical, a Russian politician said.
"Moscow is extremely interested in normalization of the
Armenian-Turkish relations," Viatcheslav Igrunov, Director of the
International Institute for Humanities and Political Studies, member
of Russian Duma in 1993-2003, told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.
This issue demands a sober approach, according to him. "Turkey's
recognition of the Armenian Genocide is unrealistic, since it implies
return of territories of Western Armenia," he said.
"As to Iran, it's the key regional power, whose security guarantees
the security of the entire region. Destabilization of Iran is pregnant
with grave consequences," Igrunov said.
