Suren Manukyan: Normalization of Armenian-Turkish ties is America's project
"Armenian-Turkish border won't be officially open on Apr. 16," Armenian Genocide Museum Deputy Director Suren Manukyan noted. He also reminded about Turkish President Abdullah Gul's statement on all information of Armenian-Turkish border opening being a lie.
According to Suren Manukyan, normalization of Armenian-Turkish ties is America's project, is a peculiar response to Mainford declaration. "This way, Washington wishes to prove his capability to solve regional problems," he said.
"April is a hard month for Armenia. Armenian-Turkish border opening declaration might be signed after Apr. 24, before including Armenian Genocide resolution in US Congress agenda. This way Turkish authorities will demonstrate that Genocide recognition could be a hindrance in the ongoing process of Armenian-Turkish ties normalization," he noted.
"The only positive aspect Armenia achieved in negotiations with Turkey is that Armenian-Azeri relations no longer determine Turkey's policy towards Armenia."
