The suspension of the process of ratification of the Armenian-Turkish
protocols was the most logical and correct decision Armenia could
have made, Chairman of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on
Financial-Credit and Budgetary Affairs Gagik Minasyan told a press
conference today.
According to him, Armenia had four options: to suspend the process,
recall its signature, ratify the protocols before Turkey would do
that or do nothing at all. "Armenia managed to demonstrate to the
international community which of the parties equates words and deeds,"
he said.
Asked to predict the future developments in the Armenian-Turkish
relations, Gagik Minasyan voiced hope that "the forces that will
come to power as a result of parliamentary elections in Turkey, will
be better prepared to establishing relations with Armenia without
preconditions." He does not believe any new stage will start in
the Armenian-Turkish normalization process before the forthcoming
parliamentary elections in Turkey.
Gagik Minasyan does not mind Iran's participation in the process of
settlement of the Karabakh conflict, especially considering that that
country has always been demonstrating a balanced position on the issue.
