/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Ankara will sign protocols on RA-Turkish
rapprochement to demonstrate its peaceful intentions towards Armenia,
Deputy Director of MGIMO Caucasus Research Center Vladimir Zakharov
told PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.

"Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s recent statement on
October 10 protocols’ conclusion and NKR’s issues’ interconnection
with RA-Turkish dialogue raises concerns. No one is 100% sure as
to protocols’ exact contents," the Russian expert said. According
to Vladimir Zakharov, there’s a possibility Turkey might allow
procrastinations in ratification process. It’s obvious Ankara and
Baku are excellently coordinating their steps behind Yerevan’s back,
Vladimir Zakharov added.

The Russian expert sees interconnection between the oncoming visit of
MG OSCE and RA-Turkish protocols conclusion. "Rumors go, the Co-Chairs
will submit reviewed Madrid principles to RA and Azeri Governments,
yet we’re unaware as to their contents. Might they contain a point
on NKR secession?" Vladimir Zakharov questions.
