PanARMENIAN.Net - Syrian Armenian community's decline in number and
power is in Turkey's interests, representative of the Institute of
Oriental Studies at the Armenian National Academy of Sciences said.
`Radical Islamists' coming to power will significantly impair the
community's condition, bringing about a security problem,' Vahram
Ter-Matevosyan said.
The Syrian conflict has claimed between 14,000 and 20,000 lives since
March 2011, according to estimates by various opposition groups and
the UN. The West is pushing for Assad's ouster, while Russia and China
are trying to prevent outside interference in the country, claiming
the Assad regime and the opposition are both to blame for the
bloodshed.
