Worsening of Turkish-Israeli relations may lead to temporary “refocusing” at Caucasus

PanARMENIAN.Net - Director General of the Foundation of Strategic Culture Andrey Areshev said that the worsening of the Turkish-Israeli relations may lead to a temporary “refocusing” of interested parties from the events at Caucasus (specifically, around the Karabakh conflict settlement) to Near East problems, the resolution of which becomes more difficult. “Possibly, the events around the so-called “Peace Flotilla” will moderate ambitions of Israel, which has been attempting to position itself as an active player at the South Caucasus during recent years. Meanwhile Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan have once again faced the growing regional ambitions of Ankara,” Areshev told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.
