/PanARMENIAN.Net/ We have repeatedly said that the process of
normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations can strengthen the
influence of Turkey in the South Caucasus, which could adversely affect
both Armenia and the process of the Karabakh conflict settlement,
Eduard Abrahamyan , expert at the Mitq analytical center told a press
conference in Yerevan.
According to him, open Armenian-Turkish border will have its positive
aspects, but the negative effects will prevail. Mr. Abrahamyan
mentioned, that Turkey always tries to influence the internal political
situation in neighboring countries, to change public opinion. According
to him, Ankara maintains such a policy in regard to Bulgaria, where
e a number of Turkish NGOs operate, and in Georgia.
"Today, Turkey is trying to spread its influence not only in the South
Caucasus, but the Middle East and the Balkans", Mr. Abrahamyan said.
