Director of Caucasus Institute, political analyst Alexander Iskandaryan
said that one should not expect a progress in the Armenian-Turkish
normalization until the parliamentary elections in Turkey. The internal
political atmosphere in Turkey will not allow the ruling party to take
steps for ratification of the Armenian-Turkish Protocols, Iskandaryan
told a press conference in Yerevan.
Referring to the recent developments in the Turkish-Israeli relations,
the expert noted that the raid on the Freedom Flotilla will not lead
to a war, but Ankara needs juicy scandals with Israel.
"Turkey is trying to change its policy in the Near East, thus, we
observe Ankara's activity in relations with Syria, Iran and Iraq.
Turkey needs to damage its relations with Israel to become more
active in the Near East and establish friendly relations with the
Arab countries," said Iskandaryan.
He added that, most likely, the situation will worsen, as Turkey wants
it. "In such case, the possibility of adoption of the Armenian Genocide
resolution by Israeli Knesset will increase," the expert noted.
