ArmInfo. The closed border between the neighboring countries Armenia
and Turkey in XXI century is nonsense. Restoration of the confidence
between Yerevan and Ankara is a difficult problem, Armenian Prime
Minister Tigran Sargsyan said in his interview with "Rossiyskaya
Gazeta" ("Russian Newspaper") when asked about possible normalization
of relations with Turkey and changes in the economic picture in the
South Caucasus, which may have a positive effect on the economic ties
with Russia as well.
Tigran Sargsyan stressed that Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan took
the liberty of solving this problem. "The establishment of good
neighborly relations with Turkey will create a comfortable platform for
our strategic partners, for Russia, which has a big significance and
obvious positions in our region",- he said.
As regards Armenia's ties with Russia, the prime minister said that
these ties are based on not only economy. "Certainly, the humanitarian
aspect of cooperation, like the military-strategic one, is very
important. Russia is our strategic partner we are cooperating with
deeply and efficiently, as well as within the CSTO. We always remember
that we have a common past with Russia. And it is for the nations of
our countries to decide what future to have. We think that future will
be bright",- T.Sargsyan stressed.
