/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkey and Ukraine to come to loggerheads over
Crimea in some ten years, a Russian intelligence veteran said.

"Turkey is determined to gain the Crimea back. It’s not a secret for
Russia, Europe and Ukraine itself. The only question is when," Igor
Berkut said. "By 2017 Muslims will make two thirds of the Crimean
population. The semi-island risks becoming a second Chechnya."

As long as Turkey exists, it will never accept that the Crimea,
a part of the Ottoman Empire, belongs to Ukraine, according to him.
