Armenia discussed the relations between Armenia and Turkey. In particular,
the guests of "Press Club" spoke about the correspondence between the Prime
Minister of Turkey Recep Tayip Erdogan and the President of Armenia Robert
Kocharian, related to the proposal of the Turkish Prime Minister to set up a
joint commission to study the issue of 1915 Armenian Genocide. The

anniversary of victory of World War II, in particular, the visits to Moscow
and Tbilisi. In the opinion of "Press Club" show participants, the Armenian
media will also pay attention to the visit of the RA President Robert
Kocharian to Moscow and his meetings with the heads of several states, the
summit of the CE member countries scheduled on May 16-17 in Warsaw, the
