/PanARMENIAN.Net/ In case of failure of normalization of Armenian-
Turkish relations, Armenia will have a new active enemy in the region,
" Arman Melikyan, ex-Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of
Artsakh told a press conference. According to him, in that case Turkey
will intensify anti-Armenian actions in the region. He stressed that
the Armenian leadership when started the process had no idea about
possible consequences. "In fact, the Armenian authorities were not
prepared to assume such responsibility, although they stated the
contrary," Melikyan said, adding that the RA leadership should
properly evaluate the current situation. According to Melikyan,
the process of Armenian-Turkish reconciliation went wrong.

"From the very beginning the Armenian-Turkish Protocols were not
favorable to Armenia", Melikyan said, stressing that the country will
not be able to return to its former positions on this issue.

"Everything is not lost, but there are many gaps necessary to fill,"
Melikyan Arman said.

Commenting on the decision of U.S. House of Representatives Committee
on Foreign Affairs to vote for resolution 252 on the Armenian Genocide
, Melikyan said he did not think that the U.S. Congress will take any
tangible steps before the visit of Russian president to Turkey in May.

The Protocols aimed at normalization of bilateral ties and opening of
the border between Armenia and Turkey were signed in Zurich by Armenian
Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian and his Turkish counterpart Ahmet
Davutoglu on October 10, 2009, after a series of diplomatic talks
held through Swiss mediation.

On January 12, 2010, the Constitutional Court of the Republic of
Armenia found the protocols conformable to the country’s Organic Law.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
