YEREVAN, Armenia -- Armenia's Constitutional Court on Tuesday rejected
opposition complaints over the legality of a government push to end
a century of hostility with Turkey.
The ruling means accords calling for the establishment of diplomatic
relations and the opening of the Turkish-Armenian border can move to
the parliament, although there is little sign they will be adopted
soon.
The accords, which need parliamentary approval in both countries,
have been gathering dust since they were signed by the two governments
in October, with Turkey facing a backlash from Azerbaijan.
