BAKU-Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu has issued an instruction
for all of the nation's young diplomats to learn the languages of
adjoining countries. Besides Armenian and Greek, he has encouraged
them to learn Bulgarian, Arabic and Russian. The tactic is a part of
Turkey's foreign policy principles, which emphasize "zero problems
with neighboring countries."
According to Davutoglu, young diplomats who are deemed qualified will
be sent to certain countries in order to learn the languages. However,
as a result of the nearly non-existent diplomatic relations between
Turkey and Armenia, the aforementioned young envoys will have no
choice but to be sent to another country to learn the language.
The initial approximation is that 30 diplomats will be chosen for
the task.
