ARMINFO News Agency, Armenia Friday Forecast: The interests of the EU dictate pushing Armenia to abandon the "unconstructive and uncompromising position" on Karabakh. Yerevan October 27 Angela Stepanyan. The "four-day war" of 2016 is a clear indication of Turkey's readiness to toughen its position with regard to Armenia under certain conditions. The Russian analyst Sergey Markedonov voiced his opinion. "In this light, we have to admit that until then the Republic of Turkey remains a member of NATO, while having the second largest army after the US, the North Atlantic integration vector remains optional for Armenia, and moreover, the EU's economic ties with Azerbaijan, coupled with an active desire to reduce Russia's energy domination is clearly not compelling Brussels to consider the interests of Yerevan as a priority of its Caucasian policy," he said. In this light, the analyst predicts Yerevan's push to abandon "non-constructivism and uncompromising attitude to Karabakh" in case of overcoming the forthcoming signing of the Armenia-EU comprehensive and expanded partnership agreement with additional integration factors. In this context, Markedonov notes security as an argument capable of outweighing for Yerevan contacts with the EU in economics, technology and finance. It is important for analysts that up to at least the transition from imitation to meaningful negotiations on the Karabakh settlement, the weight of this argument will not undergo any changes, and Russia remains on this particular vector for Armenia without alternative. November 24, 2017 at the Brussels summit of the "Eastern Partnership" Armenia plans to sign a partnership document on the partnership with the EU, which was initialed on March 21 - the Agreement on Comprehensive and Enhanced Partnership. The Council of Foreign Ministers of the EU initiated the relevant talks on October 12, 2015 in Luxembourg.
