Yerevan (Yerkir) - French President Nicolas Sarkozy's office issued
a statement on Monday saying France encourages Turkey and Armenia to
"redouble their efforts so they can quickly sign an accord... which
will be an historic event and contribute to stability in the region,"
France 24 reported.
The Republic of Armenia and the Republic of Turkey have agreed to
start domestic consultations on two protocols - the "Protocol on
the establishment of diplomatic relations" and the "Protocol on the
development of bilateral relations" - which have been initiated in
the course of their efforts under Swiss mediation.
The two Protocols provide for a framework for the normalization of
their bilateral relations within a reasonable timeframe. The political
consultations will be completed within six weeks, following which
the two Protocols will be signed and submitted to the respective
Parliaments for the ratification on each side. Both sides will make
their best efforts for the timely progression of the ratification in
line with their constitutional and legal procedures.
