February 24, director of the Armenian Center for National and
International Studies, Richard Kirakosyan said the United States,
Russia and Europe, appear to be trying to exert pressure on Turkey
so that it had to ratify the protocols, but Turkey does not respond
to the pressure adequately.

The expert believes that the consolidated pressure may infuriate
Turkey, and add its stubbornness. It may even hurt itself. "We do
not know what will be Turkey in the future – western or eastern,
Islamic or secular country", said Richard Kirakosyan. He noted that
the internal processes in Turkey, the Ergenekon case shows that Turkey
has not yet defined its ideas in the relations with Armenia.

"Turkey does not even know what it wants from Armenia. While I believe
that Armenia’s position is stronger, because Turkey makes blunder
after blunder. But we are weaker from inside", says Richard Kirakosyan.
