/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "RF Foreign Ministry has positively accepted Armenia
and Turkey's willingness to start internal coordination process with
the purpose of signing Protocols on 'Establishing Diplomatic Ties'
and 'Developing Bilateral Relations' ", RA MFA Press and Information
Department says in a release.
"Armenia and Turkey are our friends. We perceive current rapprochement
as a normal process expected for a long time. We'll be happy if
current consultations between two states result in a substantive
arrangement. As shown by preliminary analysis of draft protocols,
elements and implementation time-limits, Ankara and Yerevan are serious
and determined about studying the issues under consideration. Let's
note that none of steps envisaged by those documents can be interpreted
as harmful to a third party," says the statement.
Russian Foreign Ministry finds that the recent serious and mutual
efforts undertaken by Armenian and Turkish leaderships create real
chances for changing current situation and starting constructive
cooperation after a long period of freezing.
"We hope that improvement of ties between two neighbors will liven
up trade-economic relations and positively affect social-economic
situation in both states, especially in times of global financial
recession. Russian official representatives constantly called on
Armenian and Turkish partners to resolve existing conflicts within
such pragmatic logic. It is also important to proceed further
with Armenian-Turkish rapprochement process. That will objectively
contribute to improving situation in the region and strengthening
peace and security," says the release of Russian Foreign Ministry.
