USA exerts pressure on Armenia and Turkey

PanARMENIAN.Net - Rumors on Armenian-Turkish agreement being prompted by US are likely to be true, Russian expert on Caucasus Andrei Areshev told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. According to him, US definitely forced Turkey and Armenia into signing the document. "However, Baku's position on Karabakh conflict will complicate realization of route map agreement. Turkish and Azerbaijani diplomacies are closely related to one another, so I don't think a breakthrough in Armenian-Turkish relations is a possibility at current stage," Areshev noted.



Hurriyet periodical and other Turkish mass media insist that the Armenian-Turkish agreement was singed under the pressure of the US.
