YEREVAN. – Official Ankara is meddling in Egypt’s internal affairs because the power in Turkey is in the hands of the Islamic party. 

Armenia’s National Academy of Sciences Institute of Orientology Director, turkologist Ruben Safrastyan told the aforesaid to Armenian News-NEWS.am.

In his words, the Turkish authorities made a statement—criticizing the actions by the Egyptian army—to not only help the Muslim Brothers, but to strengthen their own positions among radical Muslims.   

“It is important for Turkey to strengthen its positions among radical Muslims,” Safrastyan concluded.
