Every country, every interested side should direct efforts to the
peaceable resolution of the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict over
Nagorno-Karabakh. It first of all concerns Armenia, as well as other
interested sides, including the European Union, Turan Moraly, the
Turkish Ambassador to Azerbaijan, told journalists in Baku.
`The opening of the Turkish-Armenian border can be considered only
after the resolution of the disputable issues, the diplomat noted.
The problem and general dynamic of development of events linked with
opening of the border is absolutely different.'
`How is it possible to demand the opening of borders which was not
recognized even by Armenia?' the Ambassador inquired. The theme can
not be put forward either by the European Union, or another
organization. `Let Armenia first officially recognize the border with
Turkey and introduce itself as a good neighbor, then we will discuss
the issue.' the Turkish diplomat concluded.
