Nagorno Karabakh prevents alliance of two Turkic states

PanARMENIAN.Net - Nagorno Karabakh conflict is a serious factor in Armenian-Iranian relations, an Armenian expert said.



"It's quite clear that Nagorno Karabakh prevents alliance of two Turkic states - Turkey and Azerbaijan," professor David Hovhannisyan, Director of ESU Center for Cultures and Civilizations, David Hovhannesyan said during "Perspectives of Armenian -Iranian relations" discussion today.



"Formation of such an alliance will inevitably affect Iran, which claim the position of a regional actor. So, rivalry between Iran and Turkish is a question of principle," he said.
