A possible change in Syria may affect Armenia, Director of the Caucasus
Institute, political scientist Alexander Iskandaryan told reporters.
"The Syrian developments are directly linked to Turkey, Iraq, and
Kurds," the political expert said.
It is the developments around Armenia, not those inside the country
that are most interesting, according to him.
Turkey has deployed troops on Syrian border, the speaker noted,
and thus is demonstrating concern over the Syria events.
"Syria is withdrawing troops from north-eastern regions (Der Zor,
Kamishli) which makes us think that major developments are taking
place there," Iskandaryan said adding that "these events may change
the regional situation which doubtless will affect Armenia."
