to Armenia," Turkish Foreign Minister and Deputy Prime Minister
Abdullah Gul said on Friday [29 April].
Replying to a question whether or not border pass with Armenia would
be opened, Gul said, "there is nothing about this, at the
moment. Prime Minister (Erdogan) expressed Turkey's goodwill on this
issue. There will definitely be some developments if there is common
goodwill. We hope neighbours will show a similar and constructive
approach".
Mentioning the interest of foreign investors towards Turkey, Gul said,
"there are several big companies and they come to invest in
Turkey. Turkey becomes an attractive country for investors."
He emphasized that German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder would come to
Turkey accompanied by 600 businessmen, and noted that some of those
businessmen were from Turkish origin. He said the delegation will come
to set up partnership with Turkish businessmen.
Gul stated that Turkey has a promising future.
