Armenia overestimates the seriousness of Turkey's foreign policy, said
head of the Institute of Oriental Studies at the RA National Academy
of Sciences, Turkologist Ruben Safrastyan at a press conference today.
In recent years, in his opinion, Turkey's foreign policy has included
some "adventurous elements." According to Safrastyan, Erdogan's
incompatible statements are accounted for by this fact.
"Turkey has accumulated quite a mighty potential both in the sector of
economy and military forces. In such conditions, the ruling elite is
trying to re-estimate Turkey's position in the modern world, especially
in our region. Turkey is trying to become a more important player,"
explained Safrastyan.
But in his words, Turkey's neighbours and the world's super-powers
don't accept those rules of the game.
