/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The government will send the two Zurich protocols
on normalizing relations with neighboring Armenia to parliament this
week, but there is no deadline for their ratification, according to
a senior Justice and Development Party (AK Party) official.
"The process of ratification will proceed according to developments
in the Nagorno-Karabakh dispute," Bekir Bozdag, an AK Party deputy
parliamentary group chairman, told Today's Zaman.
The documents are eventually expected to be passed in Parliament,
but it is not clear when lawmakers will vote on them. There is no
timetable on the ratification, and such documents can wait for years
before being put to vote.
Foreign Minister Davutoglu, who has visited the opposition parties
to inform them of the protocols and lobby for their support, will
address Parliament on Wednesday regarding the documents. "As to when
they will be ratified, this is up to our Parliament," he told a press
conference on Monday.
