/PanARMENIAN.Net/ In Armenian-Turkish relations, Armenia was
the country to show initiative in bilateral relations with
Turkey. "The choice of opening Armenian-Turkish border is now up
to Turkey," Armenian politologist Alexander Markarov told a news
conference. "Opening border with Armenia will solve important issues
for Turkey," Alexander Markarov emphasized.
As for Kars agreement, Alexander Markarov noted that Armenia never
raised territorial claims to Turkey. "Genocide recognition issue
is a matter of historical justice for us," said Markarov, adding
that Turkish media-circulated information on Kars agreement being a
precondition in negotiations shouldn't be taken for granted.
"RA Foreign Minister stated that Kars agreement issue was not included
in Armenian-Turkish road map," Markarov reminded. According to the
politologist, currently Armenia and Turkey are negotiating perspectives
of border opening.
