/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu had a
35-minute phone conversation with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary
Clinton on the eve of signing the joint statement on normalization
of bilateral relations between Armenia and Turkey.
According to Hurriyet Daily, when commenting on the document, the
Minister said that Turkey doesn't plan opening of the common border
with Armenia at the current stage of talks.
"We want to normalize our relations with Armenia, but we also want full
normalization of relations in the South Caucasus, including Nagorno
Karabakh," he said. "The protocol on normalization of relations
doesn't mean that we renounce our principles on Karabakh conflict
resolution. And we are hopeful that the international community will
focus on the Karabakh problem henceforth."
