YEREVAN, JULY 28, ARMENPRESS: In the Turkish-Kurdish clashes the
concern is raised not only with the fact of their existence but
the extended geography, Turkologist Ruben Melkonyan said in the
conversation with Armenpress, noting that if previously such clashes
were limited with the eastern sector of Turkey now they occur in
Antalya, Bursa and which is more remarkable in Istanbul. These clashes
take place when the passions grow connected with the constitutional
changes and it sharpens the situation more.
"Another interesting circumstance is that the clashes are not limited
only between Kurdish armed people and Turkish soldiers but they are
of civic nature which may become a basis for civil war," R. Melkonyan
said. He also added that July 27 one of the co-leaders of the Kurdish
"Peace and Democracy" party stated that if the authorities will not be
able to stop the clashes they will have to do it on their own. From
July 25 till today 10-11 Turkish soldiers were killed, and nothing
is said about the victims among the peaceful population.
