Andrei Areshev Deputy chairman of the Russian Fund of Strategic
Culture has spoken about Turkey's policy on Zurich protocols.
The Armenian-Turkish dialogue will continue not on the public level,
and it would be more correct to these "consultations" or "contacts",
said deputy chairman of the Russian Fund of Strategic Culture,
Andrei Areshev.
Armenia Today reports that according to Areshev, the resumption of the
same political process of normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations
would be possible six months after completion of the electoral process
in Turkey (2011-2012)..
Referring to the current time-out in the Armenian-Turkish process,
Areshev noted that this decision was agreed with Moscow and Washington.
An equally important reason for the freezing process was a hardline
position of Ankara, which has made it impossible to speak about
ratification without unilateral concessions of Armenia in the Karabakh
problem. "Turkey's policy on this issue at the official level remained
uncompromising. This is understandable, considering the availability
of certain pressure on the part of Azerbaijan, as well as the political
situation in Turkey ", he said, stressing that in the period preceding
the election processes "the ruling party in Turkey should not aggravate
its relations with the opposition, that are quite strained".
