/PanARMENIAN.Net/ As a matter of fact, Turkey does not anticipate
significant concessions from Armenia; it just wants to coerce Yerevan
into signing another Maindorf Declaration on Karabakh, Turkish studies
expert Artak Shakaryan finds.
"Such efforts are aimed at showing Turkey that Karabakh conflict
settlement and Armenian-Turkish normalization are equal processes, so
should RA-Turkish rapprochement conflict with Azerbaijan's interests
the latter will not easily break off with Turkey," he told a news
conference in Yerevan.
Touching on Turkish-Israeli relations, Armenian expert characterized
it as a dramatized show for Iran.

of Republic of Azerbaijan, Republic of Armenia and Russian Federation
on November 2, 2008 in Maindorf (outskirts of Moscow).
Under the document, the leaders of Armenia and Azerbaijan took
commitment "to contribute to enhancing the situation in South Caucasus
and ensuring peace, stability and security via political settlement
of Nagorno Karabakh conflict based on the principles and norms of
international law and decisions and documents deriving thereof."
Parties reiterated the significant role of continuing Minsk Group's
mediatory efforts in the frameworks of Madrid Document (dated Nov. 29,
2007).
They also agreed that "peaceful conflict settlement should be
accompanied by legally binding international guarantees."
