/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The United States got down to normalization
of Armenian Turkish relations. Resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict is Russia’s priority, according to director of analytical
research center, political scientist Ruben Hakobyan.

"To all appearance, Turkish parliament will ratify the Protocols.

Then, Karabakh talks will be intensified under Russia’s aegis," he
said. "Nagorno Karabakh is the price Russia will pay for 500 million
cu m of gas it bought from Azerbaijan."
