/PanARMENIAN.Net/ It's essential to determine the state border
between the Republic of Armenia and Turkey and only then to speak
about opening it, an Armenian expert said.
"There is not state border between the two countries but a dividing
line set by the treaty of Kars which was not ratified by the Republic
of Armenia. It means that official Yerevan doesn't recognize the
status quo," David Davtyan told PanARMENIAN.Net.
Turkey is well aware of the situation. "If Armenia doesn't recognize
the Treaty of Kars, it alone is to blame," Turkish Prime Minister
Tayyip Erdogan threatened in 2005.
"Turkish media tell tall tales about road map and it's quite strange
that Armenian political forces, which call on the population not to
believe Turks, do swallow the bait," Davtyan said, adding that under
complete secrecy, we can nothing but trust in diplomatic competence
of our authorities and hope that our national interests will be
maximally protected.
