By instigating military actions against Syria, Turkey threats the
regional stability, says the Vice-President of the Russian
Geopolitical Academy.
Talking to journalists in Yerevan, Arayik Sargsyan reminded that last
week the Turkish legislators voted in favor of a bill that authorizes
the government to conduct cross-border military operations outside the
country's borders, without specifying which border.
"With the given authorization, the Turkish government may start
military actions against Iraq, Iran, Armenia, Syria, Georgia and even
the Balkans, given the fact that Turkey has problems with almost all
its neighbours."
The "zero problems with neighbours" slogan declared by [Turkish Prime
Minister] Recep ErdoÃ?Â?an has actually turned into "one thousand and one
problems with neighbours" slogan, said Mr Sargsyan.
Through its provocations, Turkey is seeking to involve Russia in its
planned war against Syria.
"This week Russia's President Vladimir Putin was to visit Istanbul and
it was believed that Turkey would launch full-scale war against Syria,
following Putin's visit. The Arab world would believe that Putin went
to Turkey to give his consent to the war," the expert said adding that
Russia clearly understood it and President Putin delayed his visit to
Turkey for an indefinite period.
Arayik Sargsyan says Israel may benefit from the strained relations
between Turkey and Syria and start actions against Iran, using the
newly-opened Stepanakert airport for its aims.
