A new process for normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations will start from 2013, according to an Armenian expert.

“With a wave of nationalism expected in Turkey on the threshold of 2011 parliamentary elections, speaking of normalization of relations with Armenia would be equal to political suicide,” Artak Shakaryan told journalists on April 26. “Parliamentary elections in Armenia in 2012 will not be the best period for propagandizing reconciliation either. So, a new process is most likely to start from 2013.”

“Armenia, Turkey and world powers will do their utmost to improve the Protocols before 2015, the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide,” he presumed.
