/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkey hopes for a dialog with Armenia, Turkish
Foreign Minister said.
"A new era of Armenian-Turkish relations has come. However, we still
have unsettled problems such the 1915 events and Karabakh. We don't
have diplomatic relations either," Ali Babacan said, NTV-turk reports.
"We discussed the Armenian-Azerbaijani relations during a meeting with
RA Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian and we have an impression that
Armenia has a firm intention to resolve the Nagorno Karabakh conflict,"
he said.
Earlier, Turkish President Abdullah Gul announced his intention to
mediate tensions between the Armenian and Azerbaijani Presidents. "The
OSCE Minsk Group failed to produce effect during 17 years of its
mediation. Turkey-Armenia and Azerbaijan-Armenia issues are not
only bilateral but also territorial. The situation in the region has
changed. Resolution of conflicts will lead to political and economic
stability," he said.
