/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Self-efficiency is manifestation of independence. The
same refers to Ankara's regional policy, NKR political scientist David
Babayan wrote in a peace of opinion titled "Global, regional and local
levels of latest political transformations in the South Caucasus,"
obtained by PanARMENIAN.Net.
"Self-efficiency should be maintained both in internal and external
policies. One of its components is a certain system of values that
underlies the "two states, one nation" formula invented in early
1990-ies.
Turkism or Turkic solidarity outlines a game of many moves. The
point is that drawing Ankara into the South Caucasus, Moscow tries to
diminish the U.S. influence on the region. It's quite clear that if
the regional problems are discussed by regional powers, exterritorial
countries will hardly penetrate into the process," he wrote.
Ankara's engagement into the South Caucasus geopolitics can cause
problems in Turkey and throughout Middle East, according to Babayan.
"Turkism as a basis of Turkish self-sufficiency will inevitably
affect the Kurdish population, whose ethnic area is contiguous to
the Transcaucasia. Turkism will also arouse serious concerns in
Iran. Besides, it's beyond Europe's interests, since the process can
become unpredictable," he said.
