Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman instructed to develop measures to counter Turkey in the international arena, among them is the support of Armenians and Kurds in their confrontation with Turks.

The so-called “Lieberman’s plan” aimed at punishing Turkey involves “cooperation with Armenians” as well, writes Israeli Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper.

“During visit to U.S. this month Israeli Foreign Minister is expected to meet with leaders of the Armenian lobby. It is expected that he would offer them cooperation against the Turks in Congress. This could mean Israel intends to support the international recognition of the Armenian Genocide, which will cause a very serious blow to Turkey. In addition, Israel can support Armenians in the conflict with Turkey over control of Mount Ararat,” reads the article posted by IzRus portal.

Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper claims that Lieberman’s plan also provides for establishing links with exiled Kurdish leaders for the same purpose - to assist them in confrontation with Turks.

“Lieberman is planning to openly appoint meetings with the heads of the Kurdish underground movement in Europe in order ‘to cooperate with them and support them in all spheres one can imagine’,” the newspaper says.

“We will make Erdogan pay for him to understand that one should not have any problems with Israel,” the newspaper quotes Lieberman.
