ArmInfo. Turkish President Abdullah Gul’s visit to Yerevan was of a
symbolic nature, representative of Political and Military Analysis
Institute Sergey Markedonov told ArmInfo correspondent.

He explained such a view since the two presidents did not discuss
the problem of the Armenian genocide recognition by Turkey, opening
of the Armenian-Turkish border or the Karabakh conflict.

Stemming from all this, one can conclude the visit was of a symbolic
nature which nevertheless was a positive one, thinks the European
vector in the foreign policy of Turkey is a prior one>, – Markedonov
concluded.
