  Turkey-Armenia opposition ideologicalMarch 17, 2008 - 17:49 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Installation of U.S. missile defense shield in Turkey should first of all trouble Russia, Iran and China, Armenian political scientist Levon Melik-Shahnazaryan said in an interview with PanARMENIAN.Net "Opposition between Armenia and Turkey is ideological by nature. It's quite another matter, that the facilities will be placed near the Armenian border." "It's no doubt that any U.S. defense shield will immediately become the target of Russian missiles. It is a vital retaliation for Russia. It's not pleasant but I do not think that possible shift in the U.S.-Russia face-off can affect Armenia's security," he said.
