The journal not only covers the Turkey-Armenia relations but also many other topics about Armenians and Armenia. The main topic of the Facts and Comments in this issue is the current relations between Turkey and Armenia. Together with the fact that there has not been any development regarding reconciliation between the two countries, Armenia demands Turkey to recognize the genocide claims. Moreover, Armenia mentions issues that have already been settled a long time ago such as the returning of the properties and paying compensation, which might create new problems. The second topic in Facts and Comments is Serzh Sargsyan’s election as the president for a second time despite claims of fraud. If Sargsyan continues with the policies he followed the first five years, the chance to attain the necessary security and cooperation in Caucasus will be low. Last but not least, the 2013 24 April commemoration events in the USA, France, Armenia and Turkey are featured in the article. Assoc. Prof. Dr Emin Şıhaliev from Azerbaijan National Academy of Sciences studies the position of the Turkish Civilization among other civilizations and clashes between Western and Turkish civilizations and indicates that the Armenian issue is a consequence of this clash in his article “The Armenian Question in the Context of the Clash of Civilisations and Geopolitical EDITORIAL NOTE Interests, its Impact on Armenia-Azerbaijani Relations and Vision of the

  • Armenia: Authorities Must Investigate Election-Related Human Rights Violations
    AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL PUBLIC STATEMENT AI Index: EUR 54/001/2013 28 February 2013 Armenia: Authorities Must Investigate Election-Related Human Rights Violations Today, as thousands of Armenian citizens are gathering at the Freedom square in Yerevan to protest against election fraud, Amnesty International is calling the Armenian authorities to investigate election related human rights violations. International intergovernmental observers’ generally positive assessment of Armenia’s 18 February Presidential Election and the preceding campaign season should not be interpreted by Yerevan as to ignore reports of human rights violations related to elections. Amnesty International has received several reports of harassment including allegations of intimidation and use of force against voters and observers and is concerned that in some cases the Armenian authorities have failed to provide adequate protection and conduct prompt and adequate investigation into violations. A non-governmental international observer, Narine Esmaeili, stationed in polling station 17-5 in the town of Artashat during the 18 February Armenian Presidential election was physically assaulted and threatened by the polling station officials when protesting over alleged election violations. Narine Esmaeili reported that she had witnessed the group of 25-30 men walking into the station, surrounding the ballot box. The police officer guarding the station had ignored her request not to allow more than 15 persons to enter the polling station as it was in violation of voting rules. When she tried to protest, one of the men from the group pushed her against the wall and held her up with her hand pressed against each other, while polling station official cut open the ballot box seal to allow one of the men from the group to pour the bag full of ballots.

  • The Role of Turkish Soft Power Diplomacy in the Current Development of Central Asia Pjaee, 17 (7) (2020)
    THE ROLE OF TURKISH SOFT POWER DIPLOMACY IN THE CURRENT DEVELOPMENT OF CENTRAL ASIA PJAEE, 17 (7) (2020) THE ROLE OF TURKISH SOFT POWER DIPLOMACY IN THE CURRENT DEVELOPMENT OF CENTRAL ASIA A.Sh. Sharipov, PhD Student, Center on Contemporary History of Academy of Sciences of Uzbekistan, Tashkent, Uzbekistan A.Sh. Sharipov; The role of Turkish Soft Power Diplomacy in the current development of Central Asia-- Palarch’s Journal Of Archaeology Of Egypt/Egyptology 17(7). ISSN 1567-214x Keywords: Central Asia, Turkey, foreign policy, soft power, economic and cultural cooperation etc. Abstract: This article discusses the role and importance of Turkey's ‘soft power’ diplomacy in the development of Central Asia, the work done in recent years, its impact and significance for the countries of the region in general. The article analyzes the directions, mechanisms and tools of ‘soft power’ in Turkish foreign policy. The impact of Turkey's ‘soft power’ policy on the socio-economic, political and cultural life of Central Asian countries has been studied. Unlike other geopolitical actors active in Central Asia, Turkey does not have the financial resources to pursue a ‘soft power’ policy. But its linguistic and ethno-cultural closeness to the Turkic-speaking peoples prevails. The study shows that the emergence of the notion of a ‘reliable partner’ in the attitude of the countries of the region towards Turkey in recent years has played a major role. In conclusion, Turkey's ‘soft power’ diplomacy is aimed at shaping and strengthening of ‘image’ in Central Asia. This is mainly in the cultural and humanitarian sphere.

  • Turkpa: Promising Or Vague Future?
    TurkPA: Promising or Vague Future? According to experts, the Parliamentary Assembly of Turkic-Speaking Countries works only nominally and the reason is in officials who don’t raise relevant issues and don’t solve real problems. Follow us on LinkedIn th Photo: CABAR.asiaIn early April, the 7 meeting of the Commission on Economic Cooperation of the Parliamentary Assembly of Turkic-Speaking Countries (TurkPA) was held in Baku with the participation of the members of parliaments of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkey and TurkPA: Promising or Vague Future? Azerbaijan. The participants discussed development of technologies and improvement of the business environment, and also recommended to the national parliaments to revise the national laws to create a single base. However, despite fine and buzz words, experts think that the organisation exists only nominally. The Parliamentary Assembly, which is called an identity of the Turkic world, was established on November 21, 2008 as a result of the Istanbul agreement signed by the chairmen of the parliaments of Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Turkey. According to expert Yerzhan Kalambai, a turkologist, there had been no institute regulating the integration of Turkic-speaking countries by law back then. That’s why the International Organisation of Turkic Culture (TURKSOY), the Turkic Academy, the Turkic Culture and Heritage Foundation, and TurkPA emerged as organisations that were meant to take the integration process to a new level. As to TurkPA, its task is to promote development Yerzhan Kalambai.
