/PanARMENIAN.Net/ During the meeting in Switzerland between the
Armenian and Turkish sides, Turkey has pledged to make a step towards
normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations, in particular, open
borders, lifting the blockade of Armenia, but to date it has not
fulfilled its promises.
The President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan stated that he will go Turkey
to visit a football match between national teams of Armenia and Turkey
only if the Armenian-Turkish border would open, or if parties will
be on the threshold of deblocking Armenia. This was stated by the
specialist in Turkic philology Hakob Chakryan at the press conference
in Yerevan today.
According to him, regardless of the Turkey's position and whether the
border is opened or not, Mr. Sargsyan should go to a football match
and indicate to the President of Turkey to his mistakes.
"If the Armenian-Turkish dialogue fails, it will be difficult then
to start it from the beginning, since there are no relations between
countries. It would be difficult to create a new reason to renew the
dialogue. We ourselves will not be able to do it, " Hakob Chakryan
said.
President Serzh Sargsyan during his joint meeting with the President
