As of today, there has been no official statement from Yerevan, Ankara
or from any third side on a meeting between Armenian President Robert
Kocharyan and Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan on the
sidelines of the Council of Europe summit in Warsaw [16-17 May],
Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan has told journalists.
"Should there be a meeting between Kocharyan and Erdogan, it might be
effective only in the event Ankara focuses on normalization of
bilateral relations without any preliminary conditions," Oskanyan
said.
Bright prospects will open up on normalization of Armenian-Turkish
relations in case Turkey agrees to discuss the issue without any
preliminary conditions, without linking this issue with the position
of a third country, the minister said.
