/PanARMENIAN.Net/ `No single Armenian state structure presented territorial
claims to Turkey. The agenda of our foreign policy includes the
international recognition of the Armenian Genocide. After achieving the goal
we will proceed to analyzing the legal consequences', Armenian President
Robert Kocharian stated during the meeting with students and the teaching
staff of the Yerevan State University, IA Regnum reports. At the same time,
the President said that the approach to the issue should be realistic. `When
the expectations are big, the possibility of disappointment is big too', he
noted. When commenting on the blockade imposed on Armenia Robert Kocharian
noted that the blockade had not only negative impact. `The blocking of
communications allowed Armenia to sooner achieve replacement of import', the
Armenian President noted. When touching upon the Kars-Akhalkalaki railway
construction the president noted that though he doubts the availability of
the project he does not expect any problem. `The more are the railways in
the region the better. Anyway the route will be competitive, as the
investments in the Kars-Akhalkalaki will be compensated at the expense of
high tariffs. The compensation process will last 7-10 years. I think we
should treat it calmly moreover that we cannot hamper the realization of the
project', Robert Kocharian said.
