back, leaving a window open to a possible gradual normalization of relations with Turkey.
In particular, speaking to the Russian Sputnik, the representative of Maria ΖαχάÏοβα, said that the bilateral relations with Ankara will not be restored until Turkey recognize that the shooting down of Russian fighter Su-24 in Syria, was “a disaster” (“disaster”, according to the English-language version of the relevant publication).
Yes, the specific word repeated on two or three points of the conversation with the journalists of the medium, like he wanted to ensure that it will be perceived from the Anchor and that will not be considered as just has been said once, by mistake.
So far, if our memory serves us, the phraseology used by the Russian side was much more tasty, to such an extent that equate with the word “crime”, not the word “destruction” is open to several interpretations, some of which are sufficiently convenient for the diplomacy that is looking for opportunities to implement the impossible.
The Turkey admits that the shoot-down was a “disaster” is not something very unlikely, since it actually destroyed the bilateral relations, which, despite problems, was in a number of areas mutually beneficial for Moscow and Ankara. To ask Erdogan “I’m sorry for the crime” is a policy in which it will be insisted on Moscow if it did not intend to normalise gradually its relations.
Possibly in an effort to reach out to the Anchor and attempt to “align” with the international efforts for peace in Syria, giving and a way out of extremely difficult situation in which it finds itself because of the nonsense of ErdoÄŸan and DavutoÄŸlu, has a meaning, and a clear usefulness with an eye on the main goal, the closure of forehead with the West in order to advance the response to the economic crisis.
Let’s not forget at the same time, that the energy sector is the only one that has been left undisturbed, since the buying and selling of natural gas are continuing, none of the two sides has not been withdraw in cooperation of Rosatom with the Turkish side for the construction of a nuclear power plant, while the famous conductors was a subject that wasn’t going to work if you are not securing broad consensus from those between Ankara and Moscow.
