    ArmInfo. Turkish State Minister and Deputy Premier Hayati Yazici paid
    a visit to an Armenian church in Istanbul on Monday.

    As haber.turk says, visiting the "Surp Vartanants Church" in Sisli
    district of Istanbul, Yazici held talks with Aram Atesyan, Turkish
    Armenian Patriarchal Archbishop and Chairman of the Religious Council.

    Delivering a speech during the visit, Yazici said, "our political
    approach does not consist of fanaticism, it is rather based on
    project management".

    Yazici said that political parties should create an atmosphere where
    individuals could freely fulfill the requirements of their beliefs.

    "Political parties should not have any beliefs, they should have
    programs," Yazici said.

    For his part, Archbishop Atesyan said that Turkish and Armenian people
    had lived together and cried for each other's sorrows for years.
