    TURKISH EXPERT: "I DO NOT BELIEVE ABDULLAH GUL'S VISIT TO YEREVAN WILL PRODUCE RESULTS"

    Istanbul. Mayis Alizadeh - APA. "President Abdullah Gul's visit to
    Yerevan aims at normalizing relations with this country and involving
    Armenia in Caucasus Stability Pact," expert on international affairs
    Gamze Kona told APA's Turkey bureau. She said it was very hard to
    reach agreement with Armenia on this issue.

    "It is very difficult to reach an understanding with a nationalist
    and hostile country like Armenia. Besides, work of this mechanism
    will be impossible while Armenia and Russia are reviewed as part of
    the Caucasus Stability Pact. Gul's visit to Armenia may be considered
    a goodwill beginning, but such acts have never produced results. I
    think the president's act will produce no results, either," she said.

    Gamze Kona said Turkey took this step on the insistence of the US.

    "It is not important who initiated this visit, it is important
    whether the visit will produce any results. I think there will be
    no results. I do not think healthy relations can be established
    with Armenia, which has laid claims to Turkish territory, considers
    Agri dagh a sacred place and has occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijani
    territories. Bilateral relations develop more in the regions between
    the countries having no historical enmity. Armenia should first of all
    recognize Kars contract, then we can have discussions with them. I do
    not believe that Yerevan will cease occupation of Azerbaijani lands
    soon. Armenia strengthens its aggressive position day-by-day with
    support of Moscow, Paris and Washington.
