Turkey will propose four preconditions for Armenia, including
resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
As reported by "Bakililar.AZ", the preconditions must be discussed
during the meeting of the Turkish Prime Minister and Foreign Minister
with high-ranking figures from the U.S., Russia and France.
The first and main precondition is to ensure progress in the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict; in other words, the return of liberated
territories to Azerbaijan.
The second requirement is the creation of a commission of historians
to study the events that took place in the beginning of the past
century. The commission must include Armenian, Turk, Swiss and
American historians.
The other two issues regard RA President Serzh Sargsyan's visit
to Turkey- the Turkish-Armenian protocols must be signed before
October 12 and the Armenian President must visit Turkey. Only after
the implementation of these preconditions will Turkey come close to
even opening the borders.
This is what Prime Minister Rejeb Tayyib Erdogan was reported to say,
according to "Bakililar.AZ".
Let us remind that the general debate will start tomorrow during
the session of the 64th UN General Assembly that kicked off on
September 15.
Among those to speak tomorrow are Presidents of Azerbaijan and Iran,
Ilham Aliev and Mahmud Ahmadinejad.
Georgian President Mikheil Sahakashvili will speak on September 24,
while Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandyan's speech, according
to the UN press release, is scheduled for September 28, which is the
last day of the general debate.
