Armenian-Turkish dialogue has been constructive so far, according to Alexander Markarov, director of Yerevan branch of the Institute of CIS Studies.
“Given the position of the Armenian ruling coalition, I do not think that there will be problems with ratification of Protocols in the RA parliament. However, I can’t say the same about the Turkish parliament. The process is likely to be intensified in early 2010,” he said.
Markarov also emphasized that if Turkey wishes to be a democracy and not to fail talks with the EU, it should ratify the document.
