ARMENIA SUSPENDS ESTABLISHMENT OF DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS WITH TURKEY
Voice of Russia
April 23 2010
President Serge Sargsian of Armenia has suspended the procedure of
ratification of the protocols on establishing diplomatic relations
with Turkey in the Armenian Parliament. He feels that Ankara delays
the normalization of relations between the two countries by setting
forth ever more conditions. But Yerevan is not pulling out of the
settlement process, but has only suspended it. The protocols on
establishing diplomatic relations between Armenia and Turkey were
signed last autumn, but failed to have been ratified by the two
countries' parliaments, specifically because of Ankara's position on
Nagorno-Karabakh and the problem of the recognition of the genocide
of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire in 1915.
