Armenia has no intention to reconcile with Turkey. Its aim is to
crush Turkey "from inside", the President of the Center for Political
Innovation and Technology Mubariz Ahmedoglu said to press conference
held at the press center of Trend News Agency.

"Starting normalization of relations between Armenia and Turkey,
Armenia has shown that it may at any time come closer to Turkey upon
the order of the West. At present, the main task of Armenian is to
oust Russia from the South Caucasus region. In exchange, Armenia will
receive much greater reward from the West," said Ahmedoglu.

Turkey and Armenia signed two protocols on October 10, 2009 to
normalize relations between the two countries. After his official
visit to Moscow, the Prime Minister of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan
said in Ankara in December that this process is directly related to
the solution of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, despite that some people
have argued that the Turkish-Armenian relations are separate from
the Nagorno-Karabakh.

After the adoption of protocols, Armenia’s Constitutional Court said
that there is no need to establish a joint commission to investigate
events that occurred in 1915 in the Ottoman Empire and that Armenia
would never back down from demands of recognition of "genocide."

According to Ahmedoglu, all the processes occurring in the Caucasus
are directed against Russia. The aim here is to get Russia to withdraw
from the South Caucasus.

"In these processes, Armenia has a special role. Relations between
Russia and Armenia have become very tense. Armenia now turned to
China," said the political scientist.
