the country.
Referring to the settlement of the Karabakh conflict
and the relations between Armenia and Turkey the
Ambassadors mentioned that the relations with Turkey
will be easier if the conflict is settled. Mr.
Hovhannisyan answered that the Karabakh issue has
nothing to do with the conditions put to Turkey for
their membership in the EU and it wouldn't be normal
if the relations between Turkey and the EU were
conditioned by two other countries which are not
members of the EU.
During the meeting other issues of mutual interest
were also discussed.
