/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Turkey keeps to a clear policy towards Armenia
and neither political force will initiate changes. At the same time
we should not forget that all things, which happen in that country
most of all concern Armenia, than any other country in the region,"
Ruben Safrastyan, Director of the Institute of Oriental Studies of
the RA NAS (National Academy of Sciences) stated at the round table
organized by the Turkish Department of that institute.

He said in any cases it is all the same for Armenia which party
will rule in Turkey. "Indeed, it is easier to speak with one party
than with several parties. I want to remind that when in 2002 AKP
became the ruling party in the country, some rumours occurred about
establishing economic cooperation with Armenia in order to normalize
relations. However, they remained on the level of rumours," Safrastyan
underscored.
