    Armenia-Turkey reconciliation was initiated by Moscow not by Yerevan,
    Armenian National Congress (ANC) representative David Shahnazaryan
    said in Feb. 18. press conference.

    In the vein of its relations with Turkey, Russia initiated
    Armenia-Turkey normalization and Protocols' ratification to please
    Ankara and to prejudice of Yerevan, Shahnazaryan emphasized. According
    to him, Turkey only will benefit from the process.

    Shahnazaryan expressed confidence that Russia is concerned with
    Armenia-Turkey Protocols' ratification solely, as it is in Ankara's
    interests. Moscow is uninterested in border opening at all. In this
    context Armenian leadership will agree with all, even to the detriment
    of national interests, if it will enable to extend the ruling regime
    term even awhile. He forecasted that Armenia will ratify the Protocols
    first. Presently, Armenia-Turkey normalization process escalated into
    confrontation. In addition, U.S. will not recognize Armenian Genocide
    in Ottoman Empire in the near future, Shahnazaryan concluded.
