    Turkey's Mejlis (parliament) today launched discussions on the
    Armenian-Turkish Protocols signed in Zurich on October 10.

    In his addressing speech Turkey's Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu
    presented to the Turkish parliament the contents of the Protocols on
    establishing diplomatic relations between Armenia and Turkey and on
    the opening of Armenian-Turkish border.

    Representatives of parliamentary parties are expected to express
    their opinions on the documents.

    Following the ratification of the Protocols, the documents will be
    forwarded to the Turkish Parliament's Foreign Relations Commission
    and later to the Supreme Council.

    Turkey's parliament has 544 MPs most of them representing the ruling
    party "Justice and Development" headed by PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

    Armenia's National Assembly (parliament) will discuss the Protocols
    after they are ratified by Turkey's parliament.

    Note that today the Presidents of Turkey and Azerbaijan, Abdullah
    Gul and Ilham Aliyev, had a telephone conversation.

    Gul presented the details of his talks with U.S. and Russian Presidents
    in the context of establishing security in South Caucasus.

    The interlocutors agreed that Turkey and Azerbaijan have no
    differences.
