The West has not managed to open the Armenian-Turkish border, but it
will further do it.
In this issue, the matter is not only the Turkish-Armenian border.
The European Union and the West want to influence the situation
throughout the South Caucasus via Turkey, therefore, it further work
in this directions. And the more they persuade, the more there will be
pressure. Most actors of the world scale are interested in the opening
of borders for the transport corridors to pass via the South Caucasus,
Turkey to Europe. Therefore, the situation will further develop in
this direction and I think this issue will not be removed from the
agenda, European expert on CIS energy issues and countries, Alexander
Rahr, said.
The only country that demands taking this link into account is
Azerbaijan. Other countries want to follow a different way. They want
the opening of border to promote thaw in the region, friendship
between peoples and then there will be possible to settle this
conflict in a less strained atmosphere. But I think in fact the
European Union will further take efforts to persuade Armenia and
Turkey to sit at negotiation table", the expert concluded.
