Some tough days are in store for Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Washington, local Turkish daily Milliyet writes, referring to the Erdogan's official visit to US where he will participate in the World Nuclear Security Summit and is expected to hold meetings with Armenian and US Presidents Serzh Sargsyan and Barack Obama.

"A tough diplomatic examination is waiting for Erdogan in Washington. It remains to be seen how he will succeed to continue playing the role of Iran's lawyer in the World Nuclear Security Summit. Besides, according to some news an Obama-Sargsyan-Erdogan tripartite meeting is expected to take place. Should that meeting take place, Obama will demand Ankara not to link the Nagorno Karabakh issue to the normalization process with Armenia any more," writes the newspaper.
