PanARMENIAN.Net - Turkey's attempts to create an illusion of interest
in resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict will to all appearance
fail, an Armenian expert said.
Commenting to a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter on the forthcoming meeting
between Turkish President Abdullah Gul and his Russian counterpart
Dmitry Medvedev, turkologist Ruben Melkonyan said that there are no
premises for Turkey's involvement in Karabakh process.
"Turkey always strived to become a regional power but it will not
succeed as Ankara's intentions are not sincere. Inclusion of Karabakh
issue in the agenda of Gul-Medvedev talks is an end in itself rather
than interest," he said.
Turkish media reports say that Turkish and Russian Presidents will
discuss the Nagorno Karabakh conflict on the sidelines of a global
political forum to be held in Yaroslavl, Russia, on September 7-8.
Abdullah Gul and Dmitry Medvedev will also focus on Iran's nuclear
program and the recent developments in Middle East.
The forum will be attended by German Chancellor Angela Merkel and
former Latvian President Valdis Zatlers.
