"In so far as the Armenia-Turkey rapprochement is interrelated with
global geopolitical changes and by world powers' actions, it can be
assumed that Armenia will give Russia a chance to use its mediating
efforts in an attempt to achieve new developments in the Armenia-Turkey
normalization," Former Foreign Minister of the Republic of Nagorno
Karabakh Arman Melikyan said at a press conference today.
In his words Russian President Dmitry Medvedev's visit to Turkey in
May might bring about some changes in the normalization. If Turkey
ratifies the Protocols till May, it will mean that Moscow has pressured
on Ankara.
"That is why Serzh Sargsyan paid a short visit to Moscow," explained
Melikyan.
According to Melikyan Armenia should contribute to the maintenance
of Russia's interests as much as possible as "Russia is a strategic
country for us."
"But at the same time we should formulate our own policy, something
that is not visible yet," said Melikyan.
