ArmInfo. Anti-Turkish sentiments in Israel will probably grow but
the Knesset is not ready yet to recognize the Armenian Genocide,
says local expert Artak Grigoryan.
He said that over long years the Armenian-Israeli relations have
been connected with the fact that Israel was enhancing cooperation
with Turkey, while Armenia, staying in blockade, was developing
relations with Iran. The Armenian-Israeli relations are defined also
by other factors, in particular, the Christian churches belonging
to the Armenian Apostolic Church in Israel. "If Knesset discusses
the issue of Armenian Genocide, this will not change the foreign
political course of Tel- Aviv. The scientific circles of Israel have
an exact and fair position on the Armenian Genocide, but when this
issue enters the political field, the situation changes sharply with
the political expediency and interests," A. Grigoryan said. He thinks
that Israel will not worsen relations with Ankara.
