"Armenian-Turkish protocols will be adopted in the second decade
of December or, at least, in late January," said Director of the
Analytical Center on Globalization and Regional Cooperation, Stepan
Grigoryan.

Despite the strong existing opposition in Turkey, it cannot prevent
the ratification, says the analyst. But at the same time it can vote
against at Parliamentary hearing and derail the process. Another
factor that may influence the process is likely a case of any
shattering casus, for example, like if Azerbaijan went in war with
Armenia. Meanwhile the analyst thinks this is impossible.

Referring to the ratification, Stepan Grigoryan said that if the
ratification fails the world powers will blame both sides for
disrupting.
