    SEMNEBY: THERE COULD BE A BREAKTHROUGH IN ARMENIAN-TURKISH RELATIONS

    "It's good that the Armenian-Turkish talks have moved from a dead
    point. Opening of the border between Armenia and Turkey could be the
    first step towards overcoming the abnormal situation, when three of
    the longest borders of the region are closed: the Armenian-Turkish,
    the Armenian-Azerbaijani and the Russian-Georgian. It hinders normal
    development," EU Special Representative for the South Caucasus peter
    Semneby said in an interview with Russian Kommersant daily.

    "Today the Armenian-Turkish talks have reached a point, where there
    can be a breakthrough. Sure, the process of ratification is going
    to be hard. But it proceeds from the interests of both Armenia and
    Turkey. I'm confident that in the long perspective it is in the
    interest of Azerbaijan, because it is also interested in the opening
    of borders in the region. The war in Georgia demonstrated that the
    countries of the South Caucasus are vulnerable. This vulnerability
    can be relieved only after the problems are solved," Semneby said.
