YEREVAN, JUNE 11, ARMENPRESS: "We have always repeated that Armenia is
ready to regulate its relations with Turkey without pre-conditions. If
the recent statement of the Turkish foreign minister is in that
context, if they are ready to go in that direction the statement may
be greeted," Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandyan said today
at a joint press conference with the Estonian Foreign Minister Urmas
Paet, commenting on the statement of Turkish foreign minister that
Turkey wants to quickly normalize relations with Armenia.
"Such statements must be greeted but when we differentiate between the
emotional and rational, we must see to who this statement is addressed
- Turkish public? Armenia? Azerbaijan? Washington? Moscow? Brussels? Or
who? The statements of the Turkish side before the recent speech of
A. Davudoglu were of absolute other nature," Edward Nalbandyan said.
As to the statement of Turkish foreign minister on coming meeting of
the Armenian and Azerbaijani presidents in Italy, E. Nalbandyan said
that it is another proof that Turkey does not have any relation to the
Nagorno Karabakh conflict regulation. "If it had any relation to it,
they would have known that such an issue is not discussed today,"
Armenian foreign minister said.
