/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenia seeks rapprochement with Turkey without
preconditions or opening of Armenian-Turkish border, National Security
Council Secretary Arthur Baghdasaryan said in an interview with Spiegel
Online German newspaper. According to him, opening of borders with
Turkey spells new economic projects, new possibilities for energy
supply diversification. "Our neighbors are no enemy to us," he noted.
When questioned if friendship between Armenia and Turkey is possible
in case Ankara refuses to recognize the Armenian Genocide, Arthur
Baghdasaryan stated, "Armenian Genocide has already been recognized
by many states, and we have to take our best efforts to prevent such
tragedies from happening again. We don't seek friendship, but only
normal neighborly relations with Turkey. There are dark periods in
the history of our nations. But we have to look into the future,
instead of living in the past."
