YEREVAN, JANUARY 10, ARMENPRESS. Armenia should lead more active diplomacy in the Middle East, “Armenpress” reports expert in Turkish studies Ruben Safrastyan told the reporters.

“The developments around us in the Middle East demand single-minded diplomatic activities. It’s not ruled out that the super powers will in the near future define new borders in the Middle East”, he stressed.

Speaking about Armenian-Turkish relations, Ruben Safrastyan noted that by now there are no preconditions for reconciliation.

“I do not even expect any positive moves in the near future. Turkey is currently engaged in major Middle Eastern developments and has serious domestic problems. I do not think Erdogan’s government will pursue reconciliation under those circumstances”, the expert concluded.
