November 21, 2013 | 12:30
YEREVAN. - Turkey is attempting to revive the initiative to normalize
relations with Armenia, and this is linked to the current unfavorable
regional conditions for Turkey and, primarily, to the approaching
2015, when the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide will be
commemorated.
Turkologist Andranik Ispiryan noted the aforementioned at a press
conference on Thursday.
In Ispiryan's words, information was recently disseminated in the
Turkish media about the need for an initiative to normalize relations
with Armenia, and this information was followed by the statements of
Turkish FM Ahmet Davutoglu.
As per the turkologist, however, there is nothing new in Davutoglu's
statements in connection with normalizing relations with Armenia. What
is more, according to Andranik Ispiryan, Davutoglu again posits the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict settlement as a precondition for normalizing
relations, and this implies that the normalization process is at
an impasse.
