Political scientist Stepan Grigoryan predicts rapid developments
with regard to the Armenian-Turkish relations. The developments
have already started with the decision of the Constitutional Court
of Armenia, the visit of the Turkish Prime Minister to Moscow and
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s visit to Yerevan, Stepan
Grigoryan told a press conference today.
"The Turkish Prime Minister’s visit to Moscow and the Russian
Foreign Minister’s visit to Armenia are tied. The visits have to
do exceptionally with the Karabakh issue. Erdogan talked only about
Karabakh in Moscow, Lavrov will talk about Karabakh in Yerevan. It’s
a common practice for Turkey to solve issues in the South Caucasus
through Russia at times of crisis," the political scientist said.
"Turkey and Azerbaijan always lose to Armenia on the battle field, and
then solve issues on the diplomatic field through Russia. An attempt
is being made to apply the same mechanism now," Stepan Grigoryan said.
