The President of Armenia will never allow to turn the issues of the international recognition of the Armenian Genocide and the Nagorno Karabakh independence into bargaining, Major-General Hayk Kotanjyan , head of the Institute for National Strategic Studies under the defense ministry of Armenia, told journalists in Yerevan today. He commented on the Protocols of the normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations.

"I can state that Serzh Sargsyan would never allow anything like that, and not only because that item is fixed by the RA Constitution and the concept of national security, but also since this approach reflects his position," the expert said.
