Armenian parliament will ratify the Protocols between Armenia and
Turkey within a reasonable timeframe, Galust Sahakian, head of the
Republican parliamentary faction told A1+ on October 12.
"A reasonable timeframe must be sought in the statement of Turkey's
Prime Minister Erdogan who recently said the Armenian-Turkish frontier
will be opened in the fall. It means the process will not last for
months or years," says Mr. Sahakian.
"The National Assembly will include the issue on its agenda only
after the Turkish parliament takes a decision on the frontier opening.
If Turkey proposes reservations, Armenian parliament will not include
the issue on the agenda. We have outlined the borders outside which all
talks are excluded. These borders are recognized by the international
community, since no reaction followed Serzh Sargsyan's speech.
Even if Turkish parliament doesn't ratify the documents and enters
no diplomatic relations with Armenia, we shall have nothing to lose
or gain.
Mr. Sahakian is of a high opinion about the protests of the Armenian
Revolutionary Federation-Dashnaktsutiun. He went further and said
that the protests contribute to Armenia's diplomatic achievements
at the same time refuting the information that the actions had been
agreed upon with Serzh Sargsyan.
