Armenian expert: Meetings of presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan also imply the Armenian-Turkish relations in their context

"Armenian side seems to be trying to seize the initiative in diplomatic rivalry", announced Arutyunyan adding also that the "Sargsyan-Aliyev meetings currently imply the Armenian-Turkish relations in their context. Yet so far there are not even indirect signs of the possible real changes in the result of the Petersburg meeting".

At the same time the expert considers that the political circles of some states have the opinion that "the worst peace is better than a good war". He said "elites consider that Armenia and Turkey and Azerbaijan must strike a peace treaty like France and Germany did after the second world war".

"I can not fully rule out the development by this script", announced Arutyunyan.

Commenting on the statement of leader of the Armenian national congress Levon Ter-Petrosyan that he does not recognize any document, signed by Serzh Sargsyan, Arutyunyan said the following: Regarding the statement about "the legal non-recognition of the president's decisions", I believe it was made also in the context of possible agreements with Turkey and Azerbaijan. Thus the congress shows that at this stage the organization will stake not only on the social and legal but also the national factor".

Moreover, the expert noted that the "denial of the mandate showed that despite the statements regarding "constitutional fight methods", the congress does not accept "civil" political methods and remains loyal to its "areal" tactics. "It can not be ruled out that the alternative in a form of participation in mayor's activity, demanding everyday political work and real efforts- is not for the congress", said Arutyunyan adding at the same time that "here it would be good to draw some analogues with Georgia, Ukraine and Moldova in the context of export of new generation of "color technologies".
