Political analyst Ara Papian, head of Modus Vivendi think tank,
believes the world is on the edge of reformations.
"We are entering a new, troubled decade. Time of dismemberment of
micro-empires comes and many Middle East countries must be reformed,
and we should be ready for them. It will be either a decade of big
achievements for us, or big losses," he said, speaking to reporters
on Tuesday.
The political analyst said though US incumbent president has been
re-elected, it does not mean that changes will not take place.
Referring to the Turkish-American relations, he said they are due
to change.
"Developing more, Turkey is being highlighted for the USA, while
on the other hand it is becoming more ambitious and independent,
starting conducting its own policy which is a threat for the USA,
thus the latter is to find new sources," he said, adding that a number
of issues will come forth in that case, the Kurdish, in particular.
In this pre-context, the Armenian issue is chained with the Kurdish
one. "As the Kurds will try to create a certain statehood and forward
territorial claims to Turkey. The only document of Kurdistan is
the Article 62 of Sevres Treaty that claims that northern border of
Kurdistan is the southern boundary of Armenia. It is obvious for me
that this policy will awaken the previous issues and we must be ready
for them," Papian stressed.
The analyst said the Kurdish issue demands a more complicated solution
than the Iranian. "No matter how tensed the US-Iranian relations are,
they will improve in 5-7 years," he said.
The analyst also said the three South Caucasus countries do not have
any significance for the USA separately. "Consequently, the USA is
always striving to bring these countries to a common denominator
which is a clever policy but not reasonable," he concluded.
