Expert on Armenian FM’s participation in Erdogan’s inauguration
Turkish studies expert Hakob Chakryan does not think that Armenia should not have agreed to attend the inauguration of Turkish President-elect Erdogan at the Foreign Minister level.
At a meeting with reporters on Thursday, Chakryan said that such events usually enable the participants to meet and talk to each other and if Armenia sent a lower-level delegation, it would get isolated.
According to the expert, currently, the U.S. and EU are putting pressure on Turkey because it refuses to normalize its relations with Armenia.
If Edward Nalbandian did not go to Turkey, it would have negative consequences in this context, he concluded.
