Turkish official said, that Armenia's Turkey initiative was in trouble
after a verdict of the Armenian Constitutional Court.
The Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on Wednesday that there
was no problem in Turkey's Armenian initiative.
Burak Ozugergin, the spokesperson of the ministry, told reporters
that Armenia's Turkey initiative was in trouble after a verdict of
the Armenian Constitutional Court.
The Constitutional Court of the Republic of Armenia has declared
its decision of constitutional conformity on the Protocols between
Turkey and Armenia signed on 10 October 2009 with a short statement
on January 12, 2010.
Turkey thinks the fifth article of Armenian Constitutional Court's
verdict regarding the protocols signed between two countries is
against the target and basis of the protocols.
"Turkey has not changed its views, and it is still in the same
position," Ozugergin said.
Undersecretary Feridun Sinirlioglu of the ministry will visit
Switzerland and the United States in coming days.
"Sinirlioglu will express Turkey's concerns over this matter during
his meetings," Ozugergin said.
On Upper Karabakh dispute, Ozugergin said there had been a progress
in this issue in recent days.
"It seems that there is a light of hope for concrete steps aiming to
solve the issue in coming days," Ozugergin said.
Ozugergin also said a concrete step depended on political will and
courage of concerned parties, and Turkey was monitoring the process.
