/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenia is not against Turkey's becoming an EU
member. Acceding to the Union, Turkey will become more predictable
and secure, President Serzh Sargsyan said in Yerevan, during a joint
communique with his Cypriot Colleague Demetris Christofias. "By
Turkey's becoming an EU member, Armenia will have a direct border
with the Union," RA President noted.
Demetris Christofias noted in his turn that his country shared
Armenia's views on the issue, "We want to see Turkey inside
EU. Turkey's big market is not a guarantee for EU membership. Ankara
should first of all comply with all the terms of membership and respect
European principles and values, as well as cease the occupation
of Southern part of Cyprus, open all airports and harbors," Cyprus
President said.
