The nuclear swap deal signed by the Foreign Ministers of Iran, Brazil
and Turkey will just alleviate tensions around Iran and its nuclear
program for a while, according to Armenian expert Sevak Sarukhanyan.
"However, in two or three months Iran can again declare its intention
to produce nuclear fuel in its territory," he told a PanARMENIAN.Net
reporter. "Despite being strategic partners, Iran and Turkey pursue
their own regional interests, which do not coincide. It specifically
refers to Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh."
"Improving relations with Iran, Turkey just wants to cement positions
as one of the leaders of Muslim world," Sarukhanyan concluded.
