Ferhat Boratav: Armenia-Turkey dialogue -not a tango for two
Armenia and Turkey are not pair dance performers. RA-Turkey rapprochement process is a dance with 5 performers: Armenia, Turkey, USA, Russia and Azerbaijan, CNN Turk journalist Ferhat Boratav said.

"The powers who engaged Armenia and Turkey in negotiation process, are playing a grand game. Azerbaijan's participation in a game does not depend on Turkey's will only," Turkish journalist emphasized.


He also noted that there's nothing strange in Ankara's discussing the signed Protocols with Baku. "Ankara's attempts to persuade Baku are similar to actions Armenian President Serzh Sargyan undertook during his All Armenian Tour to explain the essence of Armenia -Turkey protocols to Diaspora Armenians. Unfortunately, Ankara has reached no results so far," Ferhat Boratav concluded.
