YEREVAN. - The very presence of Armenia-Turkey protocols is a failure
of the Armenian diplomacy, head of ANC parliamentary faction Levon
Zurabyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am.
He said the protocols provided Turkey with what the country needed: by
agreeing to set up a commission of historians the Armenian side in
fact questioned the fact of Genocide.
`This is what Turkey needed to slow down the process of international
recognition of the Armenian Genocide,' Zurabyan noted.
The opposition MP is confident that U.S., to some extent, solved a
local problem thanks to so-called football diplomacy: negated the
pressure of the Armenian lobby on Congress and the White House.
`The only party not winning anything is Armenia. The only person who
won is Serzh Sargsyan, as using this initiative, he got the support of
the international community to prolong his stay in office,' Zurabyan
concluded.
