/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkey is willing to strengthen positions in the
Caucasus, a Russian expert said.

"Russia and Turkey are regional leaders. So long as Moscow is
not active. Turkey wants to seize every opportunity to gain more
power. Under the circumstances, normalization of relations with
Armenia will be Turkey’s global victory," Alexander Sotnichenko,
a senior fellow at Saint Petersburg center of oriental studies,
told PanARMENIAN.Net.

At that he noted that Turkey is highly interested in resolution of the
Nagorno Karabakh conflict but will hardly make a decision conflicting
with Azerbaijan’s interests.
