Self-Determination Union, considers that Serzh Sargsyan should be a
man of his word and visit Turkey to watch football match only when
border is open or is in the threshold of opening. According to him,
whether president goes to Turkey or not makes no significant change,
and it should not be that much signified. `Frankly speaking, the
border opening will be advantageous for a number of businessmen,
whereas people will not benefit anyhow,' he said.
Hayrikyan was for no comment from Armenian side to recent statement of
Turkish Ambassador to Azerbaijan, namely if Sargsyan is eager to watch
football, he can travel by air. `It gives food for thought about
Turkish diplomacy, that tends to preserve gained positions and shift
Armenian-Turkish relations to the eastern front. Our struggle actually
is on the eastern front, but due to some circumstances and under
contenders' will we speak of Karabakh issue settlement, forgetting it
constitutes a part of Armenian cause.'
