MOSCOW. - Israel will not recognize the Armenian genocide and the
independence of Nagorno-Karabakh, analyst at the St. Petersburg Center
for Middle East Studies and professor at the International Affairs
Department of St. Petersburg University Aleksander Sotnichenko said at
the interview with 1news.az.
`I not believe that Turkish-Israeli relations will break down
completely,' the expert said regarding the report that deterioration
of Turkish-Israeli relations will contribute to the improvement of the
relations between Tel-Aviv and Yerevan.
Those relations have been established long ago and currently we
witness their reformation. Ankara operates actively in the Middle East
and desires to strengthen its regional power including the Arab
states, Sotnichenko stated.
He also added that serious reformation of Israeli-Azerbaijani
relations is inadmissible. Azerbaijan and Turkey are different states.
Moreover, Turkey will hardly press on Azerbaijan. Anyway, relations
between Ankara and Tel-Aviv will regulate, being somewhat different.
The expert believes that many international powers will try to be
mediators between Turkey and Israel. In particular, Barack Obama has
already stated about the readiness to reconcile both sides. UN will
not recognize Palestine, while Turkey would like the contrary.
However, Ankara only raises its influence on Arab states with this
step. Political scientist does not consider there are serious
disagreements between Ankara and Tel-Aviv after all.
