/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenian- Turkish border might be opened this
year. This circumstance, as well as intensification of Armenian-Turkish
ties lessen the possibility for US President Barack Obama to recognize
the Armenian Genocide, Armenian Center for National and International
Studies (ACNIS) Director Richard Giragosian stated. "Armenian-Turkish
ties normalization makes Baku increasingly aggressive towards
Armenia. Opening of border and establishment of diplomatic relations
between Yerevan and Ankara deprives Baku of levers to influence
Armenia," the military expert noted.
According to Richard Giragosian, Armenia should be ready to counter
Azerbaijan’s reaction.
"To Armenia Azerbaijan presents more danger than Turkey. Azerbaijan
feels isolated in the region, which might lead to Baku’s increased
enmity," the expert emphasized.
