The Caucasus platform of Turkey may cause new conflicts

The Caucasus platform has a substantial defect - it has no place for Iran.

September 11, 2008
The initiative of Turkey to form a Caucasus platform may be assessed as an attempt to reanimate the Ottoman Empire at least within the Caucasus boundaries and in the presence of strategic relations with Russia, as well as to approach the status of a regional power-holder. What will happen next is well known to Armenia from her history, and you needn't be a prophet to foresee that the Republic of Armenia will drown in the Turkic sea.
