Levon Shirinyan. `And what were you expecting from DavutoÄ?lu's arrival
that did not happen?'
December 14, 2013
In the conversation with Aravot.am, political scientist Levon
Shirinyan, commenting on Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet DavutoÄ?lu's
visit, answering the questions of what it gave to Armenia and Turkey;
whether we can say that this was just a visit, or who appeared in a
more advantageous position, although there was no talk about opening
of the borders, said, `The protocols that were actually suspended and
no move was made towards Armenia, the Republic of Armenia is in an
advantageous situation, diplomatically and politically, because it was
not going to mean anything, it was done for the global community. This
was from Turkish side, however, of course, we would like to have
relationship with Turkey, at least for security reasons, but they fail
to do it. I want to ask a question to the Armenian community: and what
were you expecting from DavutoÄ?lu's visit that did not happen? This
was just a ceremonial visit. He came and went. But, he had not come to
Armenia, he had just come to attend the conference.' As said by Levon
Shirinyan, the President of the Republic of Armenia made a brilliant
move, saying that he would not accept DavutoÄ?lu. Levon Shirinyan finds
that Turkey wants Armenia's isolation, enhancement of poverty, Armenia
to comes out of Artsakh, which, according to him, `is a result of
Levon Ter-Petrosyan's trick, but such a thing would never happen, and
the Turks have to think of not being driven out of the Transcaucasus,
and of us not to become active in Artsakh. DavutoÄ?lu came to adulate
Europe, to say that I have gone to Armenia, what else you want.' Levon
Shirinyan saw resemblance between DavutoÄ?lu and Hitler, saying the
following: `He interfered with Palestine, allegedly for Arabs, but the
Jews plucked out his eyes, now, he has got to Syria, but they fight to
hard that he cannot settle down. The Arabs also made him leave Egypt,
threatened, and now is becoming active in the South Caucasus, but we,
too, would show him the way out.'
