Armenia's President Serzh Sargsyan did not have a meeting with
Turkey' Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu in Kiev, RA Presidential
Press Service said while commenting on Turkish media reports.
Both the Armenian President and the Turkish FM attended the
inauguration ceremony of Ukrainian President Victor Yanukovich in
Kiev. During the reception following the ceremony Ahmet Davutoglu
approached the Armenian President and exchanged views with him.
Serzh Sargsyan stressed that political will is required to register
progress, and Armenia believes that the present process needs be
brought to its logical end in the shortest period of time otherwise
Armenia will have to withdraw its signature from the Armenian-Turkish
protocols. The Armenian President reiterated that Turkey can by no
means be involved in the Nagorno-Karabakh peace process, as it is
rendering unilateral military assistance to one of the conflicting
parties - Azerbaijan and making regular biased statements on the
settlement process.
"A country dreaming of a region without borders must be the first
to make steps and lift the blockade of Armenia, which will enable to
reopen the region's communication and transport infrastructures. If
Azerbaijan's pressure prevents the Turkish Parliament from ratifying
the protocols, nothing may prevent the Turkish executive body- even
before the ratification of the protocols- from reopening the border,
which it closed before," said Serzh Sargsyan.
