and suggest to make some changes which will neutralize the threats
in these protocols as they said, the statements says.

removal of the blockade will take place without the pre-conditions
out forward by the turkish party, do not meet the contents of the
protocols and are called to weaken vigilance of our people', - the
statement says. It also reads that recognizing the border set by the
Moscow and Kars illegal treaties, Armenia will satisfy pre-condition
of Turkey. The next fear is connected with the sub-commission which
should study historical problems, which will lead to delay of the
process of international recognition of the Armenian genocide. The

parties to respect the principle of territorial integrity, but there
