ArmInfo.Turkey's pressure on Armenia to obtain a corridor through the Syunik region will increase even more in the coming months. Turkologist Varuzhan Geghamyan is of this opinion.
According to the expert, the South Caucasus and the Black Sea region are today the number one priority of Turkey's foreign policy, and they are ahead of the Syrian-Iraqi direction in their importance.
Geghamyan noted that he was convinced of this during his field work in Syria and Lebanon, which lasted several weeks.
"This means that Turkey will direct its best resources (from diplomatic to military, from personnel to economic) in our direction to solve the problems facing it.
And what are these tasks? To further expand Turkey's sphere of influence in the South Caucasus and to strengthen the Turkish zone stretching from Central Asia to the Balkans as much as possible, becoming a regional superpower. The Zangezur Corridor project is one of the key steps towards this goal," the Turkologist noted.
At the same time, he is sure that in order to hide Turkey's growing pressure on Armenia, every frivolous and secondary thing will be discussed in the open. According to him, this has already been successfully done in recent weeks.
"The least that can be done now to help improve the situation is to not participate in these stupid discussions and continue to talk about the real agenda," the expert concluded.
