What price Armenia will be asked to pay for opening of border with Turkey?
The Armenian-Turkish border can be opened. The question is what price Armenia will be asked for it, according to a Russian expert.
"If the price is Karabakh, the things will remain unchanged. Normalization of the Armenian-Turkish relations should be considered apart from the Nagorno Karabakh process," Sergei Markedonov, head of the interethnic relations department at the institute of political and military analysis, told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.
"The question is whether Armenia is ready to make concessions on basic principles of its foreign policy," he said.
With a reference to diplomatic sources, Hurriyet Turkish daily reported that the closed border between the two countries could be opened for humanitarian aid purpose depending on the gestures from Armenian side and the direction of the relations.
