1.The normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations is in line with the
interests of both states and peoples, as well as those of regional
peace and stability.
2.The protocols on the establishment of diplomatic relations and the
development of bilateral ties between Armenia and Turkey represent
a considerable shift in that direction.
3.The provision about the creation of an intergovernmental
subcommission of historians is unacceptable, because it casts doubt
on the historical veracity of the Armenian genocide.
4.The condition stipulating ratification of the aforementioned
documents by the parliaments of the two states is a cause of concern,
because it allows Serge Sargsyan to share the responsibility for the
creation of the historians' subcommission with the parliament and
makes it possible for Turkey to drag the ratification process using
the unresolved state of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict as an excuse
and thus delaying the opening of the Armenian -Turkish border.
