November 8, 2012 - 17:23 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Experts expect exacerbation of a conflict between
the U.S. and Turkey in 2015, on 100th anniversary of the Armenian
Genocide, a Turkish political analyst said.
"Muslim world's response to Obama's reelection as U.S. president
was equivocal, with little change in the latter's policy line to
be expected. However, some alterations will be in line, including
escalation of a conflict with Turkey.
In 2015, on 100th anniversary of the Genocide, U.S. won't be able to
stand aside, instead trying to pressure Turkey into recognizing the
1915 massacres," Tolma Tanis said.
"On the other hand, Turkey and U.S. are allies where Syria crisis
is concerned, despite Obama's opposition to a military solution to
a conflict between Turkey and Syria, as well as a civil war in Syria."
"As to other countries' response to Obama's reelection, Egypt was
the fist to congratulate him, expressing "hope fur further mutually
beneficial relations."
"Palestine leader, as well as Israeli Prime Minister also hailed
further cooperation, as opposed to Iran's understandable cold
response, with Ayatollah Sadiq Larijani noting that no new U.S.-Tehran
negotiations are to planned in near future," Islamtoday quoted the
expert as saying, umma.org.ua reported.
