June 04, 2013 | 15:24
YEREVAN. - Turkey and Azerbaijan truly are very similar countries. All
events in these countries take place simultaneously, or a bit later
in Azerbaijan.
Armenian capital city Yerevan State University Faculty of Oriental
Studies Deputy Dean, turkologist Ruben Melkonyan noted the
abovementioned during a press conference on Tuesday.
"It is very likely that the events in Turkey may become a basis for
protests in Azerbaijan, too," Melkonyan stated.
As for the US-Russia cooperation in this matter, according to the
turkologist, it would be naive to think that these two countries
do not have their own interests and do not possess levers to exert
pressure on Turkey.
"Nevertheless, we see that the Turkish society is trying to unite
against one force: the Islamic authorities [of Turkey]," Ruben
Melkonyan added.
