YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 16, NOYAN TAPAN. The Armenian president's message
to the president of Turkey gave a new charge and dynamics to the
Armenian-Turkish normalization process. Vice Speaker of the RA
National Assembly, member of RPA faction Samvel Nikoyan expressed
this opinion at the February 16 press conference. He said that by
sending the message, the Armenian president again displayed initiative.
S. Nikoyan considered Serzh Sargsyan's visit to Great Britain last
week "praiseworthy and important". "The development of interstate
relations with this country is beneficial to Armenia. Great Britain
and Azerbaijan have quite close inter-state relations. Besides,
this country has made considerable investments in Azerbaijani
economy. The Armenian president took a correct decision to establish
closer relations with Great Britain, a country with quite a strong
position in Europe," he noted. In addition, according to S. Nikoyan,
the visit provided moral support for the recognition of the Armenian
Genocide by the UK.
Speaking about the speech that Serzh Sargsyan delivered in London, S.
Nikoyan said: "The Karabakh problem was presented from the viewpoint
of international law and history, in a well-organized text. The
speech was made before the international expert community, which
is also of importance. Over the 20 years of the Karabakh conflict,
a new diplomatic generation has come to take the place of the other,
so Armenia should frequently repeat the truth to various audiences".
