Turkish PM Erdogan makes a condition to White House in terms of
resolution of Turkish-Armenian issue
04 December 2009 [18:29] - Today.Az
`We have announced to the U.S. representatives since the beginning
that if you want to resolve Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, you should also
resolve the Turkish-Armenian issue. Otherwise, you will fail to
resolve it,' Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said in his
interview with Azerbaijan's local ANS TV channel.
Erdogan said the conflict will be resolved if the members of OSCE
Minsk Group, U.S., France and Russia make more efforts to resolve it.
He noted that Karabakh issue will also be discussed at a meeting with Obama.
`This is because the Turkish-Armenian issue and the Nagorno-Karabakh
problem are interrelated. I told it to Barack Obama and Dmitry
Medvedev, to which they replied: "We will accelerate this question.'
`If Mr. Obama and Medvedev show will and the Sargsyan-Aliyev
negotiations mark progress, I believe there will be a positive result.
If the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is settled, the Turkish-Armenian
problem will also be finally resolved,' Erdogan said.
