ARF Dashnaktsutyun seceded from the ruling coalition because ANC
leader Levon Ter-Petrosyan and President Serzh Sargsyan may join,
according to an Armenian analyst Igor Muradyan.

He came to this conclusion while analyzing coincidences of two
political leaders’ views on relations with Turkey.

Mr. Muradyan disproved statements by Armenian analytics that U.S. and
EU are interested in opening of the Armenian-Turkish border. He deems
Russia is the reason.

"Turkey adapts the policy to its internal needs and is
successful. However, it contradicts to interests of the United States,
whose decision to develop a special system to frighten Turkey dates
back to 1990s," he said.

"Assurances that the U.S. is interested in soonest normalization of
Armenian-Turkish relations are groundless. Europeans are not interested
in Armenia but they can us as a tool to prevent Turkey joining the EU,"
Igor Muradyan said.
