relations is excellent news," said Lluís-Maria de Puig, President

"This is something that the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council
of Europe has long been hoping for, and working towards.The two
governments have accepted that, whatever the difficulties of the past,
they must look to the future - on behalf of all their peoples. The
Assembly, a forum where Armenian and Turkish parliamentarians work
together as colleagues, stands ready to help in any way it can to
advance this process. I look forward to the ratification of these
two protocols by both parliaments, beginning a new - and brighter
- chapter in relations between these two Council of Europe member
