Tert.am
14:03 ~U 12.02.10
On February 12, the American Chamber of Commerce in Armenia (AmCham)
and The Economic Policy Research Foundation of Turkey (TEPAV), a
private, nonpartisan, nonprofit think tank devoted to independent
research in the areas of economic policy, governance and foreign
policy, with the support of the U.S. Embassy in Yerevan, hosted a
panel discussion on "Turkish-Armenian Relations and Cross-Border
Regionalism." Panelists for this event included Armenian Prime
Minister Tigran Sargsyan, U.S. Ambassador Marie L. Yovanovitch and
TEPAV's President and a Turkish economist, Professor Guven Sak (TEPAV).
The roundtable discussion brought together representatives of the
corporate sector on both sides of the border to better understand
the role of business in developing relations between the neighboring
countries, as well as economic and business opportunities that may
arise with an open border between Turkey and Armenia.
Professor Sak delivered the keynote presentation: "Turkey's
Experience of Economic Liberalization and Cross-Border Regionalism
and the Role of the Private Sector in the Development of Relations
with its Neighbors." The event was attended by representatives of
major business associations, international organizations, diplomatic
missions, and the Government of Armenia.
TEPAV representatives are visiting Yerevan February 10-12 for meetings
with business and government officials, non-government organizations
and others involved in the promotion of cross-border cooperation.
