    RUSSIA SEEKS TO SEPARATE TURKEY FROM WEST THROUGH ARMENIA-TURKEY RAPPROCHEMENT

    Former national security advisor to the first President of Armenia,
    Ashot Manucharyan, doesn't believe that Russian President's visit to
    Turkey will trigger significant changes in South Caucasus region.

    As he told a news conference in Yerevan, Russia struggles to increase
    its influence in Caucasus, seeking to separate Turkey from the West
    through Armenia-Turkey reconciliation.

    "However, this can't be viewed as a positive development,
    considering tragic consequences Armenia faced 100 years ago because
    of Russian-Turkish approximation," Manucharyan emphasized. "The only
    difference in current Russian policy is the country's geopolitical
    interests and unwillingness to yield its positions to Turkey,"
    he concluded.
