The Armenian-Turkish protocols will, most probably, be brought to the
National Assembly today, Head of the Republican faction Galust Sahakyan
told a press conference today. Despite this, yesterday the Government
adopted the procedure of how Armenia can withdraw its signature from
international agreements before they are ratified. This means that
Armenia will withdraw from the process if Turkey fails to ratify the
Armenian-Turkish protocols within a reasonable timeframe.
Which is the reasonable timeframe? "I think the ratification of the
protocols cannot be delayed any longer, because the reasonable time
has already passed and we are losing patience. In case Turkey tries
to move forward with the same flirtation, we'll think of recalling
our signature," Galust Sahakyan said.
Secretary of the Republican Party of Armenia, MP Edward Sharmazanov
expressed a completely different opinion today. "Saying reasonable
timeframe I mean the terms without artificial protraction. It can take
one day of four months. If the process is not dragged out artificially,
then the timeframe is reasonable," Sharmazanov stated.
