/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The opinion that Armenia-Turkey protocols were
signed under the pressure of superpowers is erroneous, Armenia's top
diplomat said.
"Superpowers support the process of normalization of relations between
Armenia and Turkey but signing of protocols is the result of agreements
achieved by the two countries," Edward Nalbandian said during a joint
news conference with his Belarusian counterpart Sergei Martynov.
"Armenia doesn't take decisions under pressure of third countries,"
he said.
Edward Nalbandian and his Turkish counterpart Ahmet Davutoglu signed
the Swiss-mediated deal in Zurich on October 10 at a ceremony also
attended by U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, European Union
foreign policy chief Javier Solana, Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei
Lavrov and France's Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner.
