EUROPEAN PARTY OF "GREENS" DEMANDS UNBLOCKING TURKEY'S BORDERS WITH
ARMENIA
Yerevan, July 12. ArmInfo.
Marie Anne Isler Beguin, Chairwoman of the EU Parliament's delegation
to Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan, recently published the materials
she accumulated during her visit of the Armenian Turkish border.
The Armenian Federation of Europe informed that according to her, "the
European Parliament in its resolutions never missed the opportunity to
emphasize the importance of unblocking Turkey's borders with Armenia,
as in the terms of the blocked borders, not only the Armenian and
Turkish borderline dwelling places suffer, but also the region
does." Isler emphasized that the issue of unblocking the borders
should become a criteria for Turkey's admission to EU.
She reminded that 10 years ago, when blocking the borders with
Armenia, Turkey intended to exert pressure on the process of the
Nagorno Karabakh conflict development. In its turn, the Committee for
Foreign Affairs at the European Parliament postponed the discussion
of the draft resolution "On Turkey's Progress for Admission to EU."
The voting for the draft resolution was postponed till September.
This was conditioned by several drawbacks in the translation of some
amendments for Turkey to apply.
