30.06.2006 17:52 GMT+04:00
/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The major danger on Turkey's way towards the
European Union is Greece's demand to open Cypriot sea- and airports
for Greek vessels and planes, ARF Bureau's Hay Dat and Political
Office Director Kiro Manoian stated in an interview with
PanARMENIAN.Net. In his words, the stagnant reformation of the
legislation that doesn't meet European standards is the second
danger. `Even the amendments that have been introduced into the
Turkish Penal Code are far from European demands,' Manoian remarked.
He also added that Erdogan's Islamic party is most of all interested
in Turkey's European integration. `Be Erdogan elected President or
not, the demand to normalize relations with Armenia and open the
border will remain on the agenda. If Turkey open the border with
Armenia Azerbaijan will remain without support in the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict settlement,' Manoian underscored.
