PanARMENIAN.Net - Turkey and Azerbaijan have serious contradictions
which they're attempting to conceal, according to director of History
Institute at RA National Academy of Sciences.
To prove his point, Ashot Melkonyan cited Baku's pressuring Turkey into
non-ratification of protocols with Armenia, despite clear benefits the
official Ankara might reap as documents envisaged Armenia's refusal
from territorial claims to Turkey.
"The economically developing Azerbaijan is reluctant to accept the
role of a "younger brother", current contradictions with Turkey pushed
to the background only in the face of major problems with Armenia,"
the expert said.
"By its response to Armenian Genocide bill adoption Baku did a
disservice to Ankara," Melkonyan concluded.
On January 24, demonstrators gathered in front of the French embassy
in Azerbaijan to protest the passage of the Genocide bill. As the head
of Azeri Social Union noted at the rally, French Senate "endorsed a
historic error." "Fraternal Turkey can always count on our support,"
he said.
