ARMENIAN MINISTER SAYS TURKISH LEADER'S VISIT "HISTORICAL"
Armenian Public TV
Sept 8 2008
[Presenter] Armenian Foreign Minister Edvard Nalbandyan has described
the Armenian president's initiative to invite his Turkish counterpart
Abdullah Gul to Armenia as historical noting that the Armenian
and Turkish presidents took a courageous and important step in the
normalization of relations between the two countries. Nalbandyan
expressed his confidence that the initiative would have a good
continuation and would yield good results.
[Nalbandyan] Both presidents took a courageous and important
step. First of all, our president's [Serzh Sargsyan's] initiative
to invite the Turkish president to Armenia was a historical
initiative. The Turkish president made this initiative a reciprocal
one by accepting the initiative. I think this step taken by both
presidents was a good step in the normalization of relations.
Both presidents are more than halfway through the normalization of
relations between the two countries, having taken this step. In line
with an instruction given by both presidents, the remaining half of
the way will be passed by our diplomats, and I think, we will do our
best to achieve positive results.
