Armenia might punish Turkey if it fails to ratify the Protocols, Director of the Armenian Center for National and International Studies Richard Giragosian told journalists on Feb.4.

According to expert, if Turkey does not ratify the documents, Armenia will have an opportunity to harm Turkey. In addition, it will assist the recognition of Armenian Genocide, Giragosian said.

Turkey’s behaviour irritates Americans. The U.S. Congress may refer to Armenian Genocide merely to punish Turkey. U.S. President Barack Obama can use this issue to show his strong leadership and principles. If Turkey fails to deal with the situation, it will face a major threat, Giragosian concluded.
