Erdogan's statement on possible deportation of Armenians mustn't come as a surprise. Turks tend to show their true face from time to time, head of Analitika.at.ua data portal Marat Hakobyan said.

"It's only during negotiations for EU membership that Turkey adopts European values. In fact, Turkey is stuck at crossroad of civilizations, seeking to belong to the civilized world, yet unable to give up medieval traditions," the expert told PanARMENIAN.Net.

"Ankara's reaction when urged by other states to acknowledge the Armenian Genocide is an obvious proof of the above," he added.
