''Turkey may face some expansion from Armenia''
Noravank Foundation’s head Gagik Harutyunyan shared his view on Armenia-Turkey border reopening voicing a concern that “it may undermine our syndication which is not very high-organized”.
But at the same time the border is actually open, says Mr. Harutyunyan, so economical changes are not expected.
“If we sign protocols and open border, we will not feel any changes over rather a long time. I think, that some detente can happen, while the tense in region will probably remain.”
He also pointed that Turkey may face some expansion from Armenia, in particular, in sector of energy, since given the situation in border’s adjoining territories it can come true.
Referring to the concern on expansion of Turkish goods into Armenia, the analyst expressed his trust to Armenian businessmen.
“I hope they will not allow that expansion. So, I’m calm.”
