President of Russia Vladimir Putin held Turkish Prime Minister Recep
Erdogan from a military operation against Syria, Russian political
expert, Professor Igor Panarin told ArmInfo.
He said that the latest anti-governmental manifestations in Istanbul
and other big Turkish cities were organized by external forces that
were displeased with Erdogan's refusal to war against Bashar Assad.
"Actually, Damacus's seizure was planned for December 2012 with
Erdogan to have had the key role in it. However, negotiations were
held between Putin and Erdogan at the given period of time and I think
Turkey certainly changed its stance after those negotiations. I'd like
to see the reasonability reigning in the Turkish elite in order the
latter refrains from participating in the anti-Syrian plots," the
politician said.
Panarin shares the view that one of the targets for the Turkish
mercenaries warring on the side of the Syrian terrorists, the
so-called armed opposition, is the Armenian community, the successors
of the Armenians that survived the Armenian Genocide in Ottoman Turkey
in early 20th century.
"I think it is a delicate global game. The Islamic extremists are
killing first of all the Christian population, both the Catholics, who
number nearly 2 million people in Syria, and Armenians," he said.
