YEREVAN. - Taking into account the growing protest in the country,
Turkey's PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan may intensify the situation in the
Syrian front to draw the Turkish public attention on an external
enemy.
Turkologist Artak Shakaryan stated the abovementioned during a press
conference on Saturday.
In his view, by inciting certain military actions, Erdogan will
attempt to distort the image of an internal enemy within Turkey.
`As for the [Istanbul-] Armenian community, it is divided into two
parts: 19-25-year-old, primarily leftist [Armenian] persons are taking
an active part in the demonstrations,' the turkologist noted. He
added, however, that the Armenian community's other - and more
experienced - segment knows that, no matter what, the Armenians will
bear the brunt in the end.
Shakaryan also stressed that the current events in Turkey will have no
direct impact on the Nagorno-Karabakh issue.
`If the nationalists come to power in Turkey, this will be much worse
than Erdogan's present-day position,' the turkologist concluded.
