Chairman of the European Integration NGO, Karen Bekarian, said
he thinks Armenia must ratify Armenia-Turkey relations first and
without delay.
"We haven't got any reasons for not ratifying the protocols. The
protocols come into force at the very first day of the month followed
after exchanging the letters. So, if one of parties didn't ratify
the protocols, then the documents wouldn't come into force," said
Karen Bekarian.
The process of ratification will probably end in February or March,
according to Karen Bekarian who pointed that after the protocols pass
the ratification, some other processes would set off. He also said
that any lost second today will cost years later.
It's worth mentioning, that Armenia-Turkey protocols after hearings
at Constitutional Court were delivered by Armenia's President to
Parliament. The documents are reported to be discussed by the standing
committee for foreign affairs.
