16:39 25/11/2013 " TOPIC OF THE DAY
Turkey's attempts to revive Armenia-Turkey talks, the developments
concerning the Syrian crisis and the Kurdish problem suggest that
Turkey's policy 'zero problems with neighbors' has failed, Turkish
studies expert Anush Hovhannisyan told a press conference in Yerevan.
The expert referred to the statement of Turkish Foreign Minister
Ahmet Davutoglu that Turkey's foreign policy challenges are Armenia,
Cyprus and Syria, and they have not been resolved yet.
Referring to the Moscow meeting between Russian President Vladimir
Putin and Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, which, among
other issues, discussed the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, the expert noted
that the balance of forces in the region between Turkey and Russia
is violated in favor of Russia and despite the economic partnership
with Turkey, Moscow and Ankara remain serious rivals.
Regarding Armenian-Turkish relations, Mrs Hovhannisyan said that as
the Armenian Genocide centennial approaches, Turkey intensifies its
activity in this issue.
