"Only Turkey can benefit from recently intensified Armenian-Turkish
relations", considers former spokesman of Armenian Foreign Ministry,
coordinator on external ties of the opposition Armenian national
congress Vladimir Karapetyan.
"Showing the so-called attempts to restore relations with Armenia to
the whole world, still keeps the border closed and does not establish
diplomatic relations", added he.
Moreover, according to him, the trilateral meeting of the Foreign
Ministers of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Turkey in New York helped Turkey
to present itself to the world community as one of the mediators in
the resolution of the Karabakh conflict.
Another achievement of Turkey was the suspension of the process of
international recognition of "Armenian genocide", according to him.
"Due to the rumors about creation of the Armenian-Turkish commission of
historians to study 1915 events, no state has recognized "the genocide"
this year", added Karapetyan.
