"Now the stones have been moved and everyone should re-consider the
regional policies," Babacan said.
Turkish Foreign Minister Ali Babacan said Thursday that an important
step was for Turkish-Armenian relations after Turkish President
Abdullah Gul's recent visit to Yerevan, the Armenian capital.
"I would not describe our president's visit to Armenia as a 'U-turn'
but it surely is an important step to move things further in our
relations," Babacan told reporters at a press meeting in Bern,
Switzerland, where he met his Swiss counterpart.
Babacan said he saw "a proper environment" for the solution of
"frozen conflicts" in the Caucasus.
"Now the stones have been moved and everyone should re-consider the
regional policies," Babacan said.
