/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "I'm unaware of exact contents of Armenian-Russian
agreement. Still, as far as I understand, it's not a binding
agreement but only a declaration of intent, some type of a route
map for normalization of Armenian -Turkish ties," Azeri politologist
Rasim Musabekov told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.
The statement Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan made in Turkish
Parliament, stipulated for synchronization of ties' normalization and
opening of borders with progress in Karabakh conflict settlement. "If
presented in this manner, the steps will not arise Azerbaijan's
negative reaction. Time has come for effective steps that could turn
South Caucasus region into a zone of stability and collaboration. So
we must use the chances we currently have," Musabekov stressed.
On Apr. 22, 2009, Armenia and Turkey, through the intermediary
of Switzerland, conducted intensive work towards normalization and
development of ties in the spirit of neighborliness and mutual respect,
promoting establishment of peace, safety and stability in the region,
joint statement of RA and Turkish Foreign Ministries and Swiss Foreign
Affairs Federal Department says.
Both countries achieved significant progress and understanding in
the process and agreed about mutually acceptable limits for ties'
normalization providing a positive perspective for continuation of
the process, RA MFA reported.
