“Turkey cannot give these guarantees to Azerbaijan”

December 15,2015 14:00

Political analyst Hrant Melik-Shahnazaryan told in an interview with “Aravot” that he does not give great importance to the statements by Turkey, with which the brotherly state assures that will it will be always next to Azerbaijan and calls on Armenia to return “the territories of Azerbaijan.” “Turkey’s such approach is not new. Such statements have been voiced for several times. But today, these statements are quite weak for Turkey today cannot give a guarantee to Azerbaijan to start a war and to achieve success. Being in a quite complicated geopolitical situation, actually, Turkey has lost its impact in the last two years. It has lost its influence on the Crimea, its position is quite weak in the Middle East, and I do not think that under such situation, Ankara would try to create a new hotbed of conflict in the South Caucasus and involve Azerbaijan into it. Baku, certainly, can demand some guarantees from Turkey, but we all understand that Turkey cannot give these guarantees. Therefore, I think that the Turkish factor, which no matter what possible influence it has, but as of this moment, it plays the last role in the escalation of this conflict,” said the political analyst.
