The probability of ratification of the Armenian-Turkish protocols
has reduced, but has not reached zero, President of the European
Integration NGO Karen Beckaryan told a press conference today. His
predictions about the ratification of the protocols in February-March
did not come true.
What can change in the possible establishment of
Armenian-Turkish relations in 10 days? Some analysts consider that
Sargsyan-Obama-Erdogan meeting in Washington could revitalize the
process. Those, who are less optimistic, say it's useless to continue
the process, since Turkey obviously shows that it does not intend to
ratify the protocols.
Erdogan's statement about expelling the Armenian from Turkey created
a negative atmosphere in the process. According to Karen Beckaryan,
it was a racist call, and in response to that the Armenian Ministry
of Foreign Affairs had to urge its citizens to refrain from visiting
Turkey.
Karen Beckaryanis is not sure an updated Madrid document exists. Not
ruling out the possibility of resumption of war, he attached importance
to the involvement of Karabakh in the talks.
