"As long s there is no signed agreement on Karabakh settlement,
or there are neither statements nor announcements on the peace
settlement in the near future, the Turkey's Parliament won't ratify
the Armenian-Turkish protocols," said former Armenian foreign minister
and a member of the oppositional Armenian National Congress Alexander
Arzumanyan.
He said the protocols will be linked with settlement of Karabakh issue
and will be ratified only after the certain promises to withdraw
troops from the territory of Nagorno Karabakh. "Everyone but the
leaders of the Republican Party of Armenia knows it," he said.
"The progress recorded in the Munich consultations makes obvious that
there is at least verbal agreement on the deal in the near future
from the basis of the Madrid principles," he said. "This unacceptable
document has some articles and sayings related to the withdrawal of
troops and the region of Lachin, and these articles haven't yet been
clarified, and this exactly brings some complications," he added.
