Before dwelling on the Armenian and Turkish relations, we have to ask
why it became so urgent now and whether this process is expedient for
Armenia and where this initiative started, says the political
scientist Manvel Sargsyan during today’s discussion at the Armenian
People’s Party office.

The Armenian and Turkish relations are determined by serious changes
in the international relations. Everything changed in 2008 when Russia
started a war against Georgia. Several days after this event, the
Turkish prime minister Erdoghan left for Russia and presented his
proposals.

Turkey proposed us border opening and diplomatic relations. We have to
answer their proposals but we have no proposals yet and we have
nothing to discuss in the genocide and Karabakh issues. If relations
are established without preconditions this means at least secret
arrangements or repression on Turkey, said Manvel Sargsyan.

According to him, Karabakh question cannot be in the Armenian-Turkish
protocols because if it were alongside with it another 10 questions
maybe included in them. The government may use this factor in home
issues but the society does not trust the government whatever it does.

Here the Russian-Turkish factor comes. The question occurs whether
Turkey renounced the Karabakh issue. Now in the Turkish press the
question that Azerbaijan has to forget Karabakh is actively
discussed. It cannot be accidental.

According to Manvel Sargsyan, it is useless to speak about the
Armenian and Turkish protocols because they do not contain
anything. Just like the Madrid documents, they are an ordinary
diplomatic document which the superpowers may use the way they would
like.
