/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "RA-Turkish rapprochement Protocols’ signing process
was interesting and unpredictable," Director of Armenian Center for
National and International Studies, Richard Giragosian told a news
conference in Yerevan. According to him, Turkey was trying its best
to provide OSCE Co-Chairs’ presence at protocol signing ceremony
in an attempt to link RA-Turkish rapprochement with NKR conflict
settlement. Yet, Armenia and Switzerland prevented this from happening,
expressing their categorical protest. "Both Turkey and OSCE Co-Chairs
seek to use RA-Turkish rapprochement for NKR conflict settlement,"
Giragosian noted.
He also commented upon Russia’s passive attitude during Protocol
signing ceremony, noting that it might be explained by improvement
in Russia-Azerbaijan relations.
Addressing NKR conflict settlement issue, Giragosian stressed that
Azerbaijan has no sense of reality and does not understand Karabakh
will never be a part of it.
Commenting on RA President’s visit to Moscow, Giragosian said,
"The President himself is unaware as to the purpose of his visit".
