    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ According to a survey held by the Center for Research
    on European Communities at the University of Ankara, Turkey's main
    enemy is the United States, Armenia comes next. 37.5 per cent of
    respondents consider the United States as the enemy, 10.9 per cent -
    Armenia, 10.6 per cent - Israel, 6.1 per cent - Greece, 5.1 per cent
    - France.

    29.9 per cent of respondents named among Turkey's friends Azerbaijan
    and 15.7 per cent - Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.

    69.7 per cent of respondents are for the ratification of the
    Armenian-Turkish Protocols by the Turkish Parliament. But they
    expressed some reservations: for example, 35 per cent - in case
    of "withdrawal of Armenians from the territories of Azerbaijan",
    28.6 per cent - in case if Armenians refuse from the international
    recognition of the Armenian Genocide, and only 6.1 per cent agree
    with the ratification, without preconditions.

    The survey was held between October 31 and December 31, 2009 in nine
    provinces of Turkey, Ankara and Istanbul. Students, public figures,
    intellectuals were among 1,032 respondents, AbHaber reported.

    Protocols on the normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations have
    been signed on October 10, 2009 in Zurich by the foreign ministers
    of Armenia and Turkey, Edward Nalbandian and Ahmet Davutoglu in the
    presence of the foreign ministers of France, the United States, Russia
    and Switzerland after a series of diplomatic talks held through Swiss
    mediation since 2007. According to the Protocols, diplomatic relations
    should be established between the two countries and the mutual border,
    closed by Turkey since 1993, should be opened. On January 12, 2010
    Armenian Constitutional Court acknowledged the constituency of the
    Protocols.
