Normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations unlikely in foreseeable future

/PanARMENIAN.Net/ I wouldn’t say that normalization of
Armenian-Turkish relations possible in the foreseeable future,
chairman of Mitq analytical center, historian Eduard Abrahamyan said
in an interview with PanARMENIAN.Net.

`The fact is that Turkic solidarity is gaining weight. Turkey is not
interested in independence and uncontrollable Armenia. During the
soviet era, Ankara was trying to weaken Russia’s influence and cement
the Turkic bloc and Islamic fundamentalism,’ he said.

`As to Georgia, it has to put up with the economic expansion of
Turkey, which under supervision of its Western allies keeps on
developing various scenarios of so-called Turkish projects where
Armenia is perceived as a temporal political entity, completely
yielding to Azerbaijan.’

`However, despite political confrontation, I can’t rule out official
economic ties between the two states, especially because informal
economic contacts has existed and developed since Armenia proclaimed
independence,’ the expert said.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
