    ARMENIAN PRESIDENT'S STATEMENT - AFFIRMATION OF THE DEADLOCK ANKARA HAS LED THE ARMENIAN- TURKISH PROCESS TO

    ArmInfo. "Armenian President Serge Sargsyan's statement on suspension
    of the process of ratification of the Armenian-Turkish protocols was
    affirmation of the deadlock Ankara has led the Armenian-Turkish process
    to," says Ruben Safrastyan, Director of the Institute of Oriental
    Studies at the Armenian National Academy of Science, turkologist,
    Doctor of Science (History), Professor.

    In an interview with ArmInfo, R. Safrastyan says: "In his statement
    yesterday, the president affirmed the situation that Turkey has
    created by its preconditions. The fact that the process has faced a
    deadlock is a logical result of Turkey's recent steps". As regards
    the possible response measures by Turkey, R. Safrastyan thinks that
    Ankara will take no steps apart from usual threats against Armenia
    and statements that Turkey is committed to the Protocols. Turkey
    just needs to demonstrate that it is committed to the principle of
    normalization of the Armenian-Turkish relations, because it has
    found itself isolated because of its useless efforts to link the
    Armenian-Turkish process and the Karabakh conflict. "Turkey is not
    ready yet to refuse from linking the two processes. Neither it is
    favorable for Turkey to terminate the process," he says. On the eve of
    the 95th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, on April 22 President of
    Armenia Serzh Sargsyan signed a decree on suspension of the process
    of ratification of the Armenian-Turkish Protocols. Nevertheless,
    Armenia does not recall its signature from under the Protocols to
    keep the opportunity of establishing relations with Turkey.
