ARMENIA ONLY REGIONAL STATE PREVENTING TURKISH INFLUENCE - UKRANIAN POLITICIAN
17:16 ~U 10.04.13
Armenia is the only country in the South Caucasus region capable
of preventing Turkey's growing influence, according to a Ukrainian
politician.
In recent comments to Analitika.ua, Dmitry Snegiryov said such policies
contributed to the late 1990 Armenian pogroms in Baku. He described
the tragedy as the continuation of the Armenian Genocide.
"With its Panturkist policies, Azerbaijan has always relied on Turkey's
assistance for resolving domestic and foreign problems.
Turkish nationalists from the Grey Wolves [movement] had direct
participation in the armed conflicts in Nagorno-Karabakh, thus
underlining Turkey's policies to those regions' ethnic population,
namely, the Armenians. Turkey, to which Armenia has territorial and
political claims, is not interested in the existence of an Armenian
state within its historical boundaries. The Kingdom of Armenia is the
only state in the Caucasus region that can take real steps to halt
the growth of the Turkish influence. And that caused the pogroms as a
recurring phenomenon not condemned by the ethnocide policies," he said.
