Yerevan - APA. "Serious improvement was recorded in the talks on
establishing bilateral dialogue between Armenia and Turkey.
I hope the results of the agreement, the details of which are not
known yet, will be positive for Armenia, Turkey and the entire
region," UK Special Representative for the South Caucasus Brian
Fall told journalists in Armenia, APA reports quoting Novosti-Armenia
agency. The diplomat expressed his hope that the US, which participates
in the process, will support the solution of problems and there will
be no divergence.
"Because the document (means roadmap - APA) is important for both
Armenia and Turkey. We have always stated that conflicts should be
solved peacefully, not by force," he said.
As regards the opening of Armenia-Turkey borders, Brian Fall said it
is impossible in a short period of time.
"I will be surprised, if the borders are not opened before Turkey's
admission to the European Union. But it is difficult to say the exact
date," he said.
