    Having tired of the Turkish opposition, Erdogan is trying to form
    a new opposition made of the Kurds, Turkologist Artak Shakaryan,
    said at today's press-conference.

    "The Turkish premier seems to think that in his intention to become
    a president, it will be easier to him to make an arrangement with
    the Kurds than the Kemalist opposition. So, through strengthening
    of the Kurds, Erdogan will gain their support in the forthcoming
    reformation of the Constitution, which will give him a chance to
    become the president. At the same time, there is no guarantee that in
    case of becoming the president, Erdogan will not impose more pressure
    upon the Kurds", - he emphasized.

    So, Shakaryan thinks that weakening of the present opposition is
    not beneficial to the national minorities of Turkey, as president
    Erdogan may become unpredictable and dangerous. He thinks that the
    package of democratic reforms presented by Erdogan is working just for
    attraction of the Kurdish electorate, as the package supposes extension
    of the language rights of national minorities, making alterations to
    the electoral system in favor of small political parties, etc. "As
    for the Kurds, the reforms will give them an opportunity to teach
    their children Kurdish language and give them Kurdish names", -
    the Turkologist concluded.
