/PanARMENIAN.Net/ It is not surprising that statement on road-map is
made a day before April 24, when Armenians of the world commemorate
victims of the Armenian Genocide, an Armenian expert said.
"This is a message to U.S. President Barack Obama: do not meddle
in Armenian-Turkish relations, turkologist Artak Shakaryan told
PanARMENIAN.Net. "This way Turkey signaled to Barack Obama and leaders
of other nations to stop recognition of the Armenian Genocide" Artak
Shakaryan said.
Armenian turkologist is sure that no obvious progress will be observed
in Armenian-Turkish relations.
"It is possible that for the return football game between Armenian
and Turkish teams Ankara may decide to open the border for a week. But
that will be a political gesture only," Shakaryan said.
