"I am not an optimist in the issue concerning the Armenian – Turkish
relations", – said Hakob Avetikyan, the chief editor of "Azg"
newspaper today on the meeting with the journalists. He called the
present situation "complicated".

Hakob Avetikyan presented two scenarios of possible development of
the Armenian-Turkish relations.

According to the first one Turkey stays stiff in its disposition and
doesn’t ratify the protocols after which the tension in the region
grows. This situation will be followed with more difficulties in the
Armenian – Azerbaijani relations.

According to the speaker the second scenario supposes the ratification
of the Armenian – Turkish protocols with "big stipulations".

"Stipulations which can be not acceptable for the Armenian side", –
stressed the speaker.

"Turkey can ratify the protocols for Armenia to deny them", – H.

Avetikyan mentioned and added that in that case Turkey will "introduce
Armenia a criminal side".
