"We will only welcome if Turkey fulfils the agreements reached. We
are waiting for practical steps," Armenian Foreign Minister Edward
Nalbandian said, commenting on Trkish FM Ahmet Davudoglu's statement
that "Turkey is committed to the agreements reached with Armenia."
"This statement of the Turkish Foreign Minister can only be welcomed,
since the agreement between Armenia and Turkey envisages establishment
of relations and opening of the border without preconditions," the
Armenian Foreign Minister said at the joint press conference with
the OSCE Chair-in-Office, Greek Foreign Minister Dora Bakoyannis.
According to the Minister, serious negotiations are under way, and the
parties came to a certain agreement this spring. In the past Turkey
was setting preconditions connected with the settlement of the Karabakh
conflict and the process of recognition of the Armenian Genocide.
"When starting the talks, we agreed to move towards normalization
of relations and opening of the border on the basis of mutual
understanding," Minister Nalbandian stated.
