    Recep Tayyip Erdogan The normalization of relations with Armenia
    depends on the settlement of the Karabakh conflict, Turkish PM Recep
    Tayyip Erdogan told Russia Today.

    In a wide-ranging interview published on 10 December, Erdogan was
    asked if Armenia would give up its claims so that Turkey could open
    up its borders.

    "As an act of goodwill, we have extended a peaceful hand to them,
    regardless of whether they accept it or not," Erdogan said. "Before
    anything else, however, there is the problem of Nagorno-Karabakh and
    Azerbaijan, the issue of the frozen conflict must be first dealt with.

    And then, we will usher in a new era."
