U.S. State Department's spokesperson Philip Crowley says this is
a critical time period to implement the protocols that Armenia and
Turkey have signed last year. Armenian and Turkish delegations are
attending the Nuclear Stability Summit in Washington D.C. and held
a meeting yesterday let by the president of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan
and the Prime Minister of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Crowley said Secretary Clinton had a meeting with the foreign minister
of Turkey Davutoglu today and they discussed the Turkey-Armenia
normalization and NATO's relations with Bosnia-Herzegovina. Crowly
said the meeting was very positive and went over 45 minutes. There may
be a second meeting between the two either this evening or tomorrow.
Analysis does not exclude the the participation of the foreign minister
of Armenia Mr. Nalbandyan in this meeting. The United States, Russia
and EU strongly support the normalization of relations between Armenia
and Turkey. Turkey so far has dragged the ratification of the two
signed protocols to normalize its relations with neighbor Armenia in
its parliament conditioning it with its relations with Azerbaijan.
In the meantime the foreign ministers of Armenia and Turkey Mr. Edward
Nalbandyan and Mr. Ahmet Davutoglu continued yesterday's dialogue
that took place at the meeting between the president of Armenia Serzh
Sargsyan and Prime Minister of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan at the
lunch hosted by the US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for the
participants of the Nuclear Summit in Washington D.C.
The working lunch was hosted in the honor of the foreign ministers
attending the nuclear summit yesterday and today in Washington. During
the lunch the foreign ministers of Armenia and turkey had a
conversation focusing it on yesterday's discussion that took place
between Erdogan and Sargsyan.
