/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkey should not defend Azerbaijan's interests and
demand Armenia's abandoning the seized territories as a precondition
for the establishment of the Armenian-Turkish relations, Co-Chairman of
the Armenian-Turkish Relations Development Council Kaan Soyak stated
in Yerevan today. According to him, the organization headed by him
advocates activation of Turkish-Armenian relations and raising the
blockade of the Armenian border. "Europe has not had borders for
long time and I think Armenia and Turkey should not be separated
by borders. These two countries should follow the example of the
European states", he said. However the issue of the opening of the
Armenian-Turkish border will remain unsettled for many years if the
parties are fundamental on their stands. "For the soonest resolution
of the problem I exert pressure on the Turkish governmental circles
within the limits of the possible. I call my Armenian colleagues to
follow my example and put pressure upon the Armenian government",
the Turkish businessman noted.
