/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Russia is interested in Armenian-Turkish
reconciliation, according to an Armenian expert.
"Over the recent years, Russia and Turkey have significantly improved
relations, especially economic ones. If the Armenian-Turkish border
opens, Yerevan can export electricity to Ankara, the energy sector
being under Russia's control in Armenia," Artak Shakaryan told a news
conference in Yerevan.
Commenting on the meeting between the Russian and Armenian Foreign
Ministers, he said that Mr. Lavrov to all appearance briefed his
Armenian counterpart on the Jan. 13 Putin-Erdogan meeting.
The protocols aimed at normalization of bilateral ties and opening of
the common border between Armenia and Turkey were signed in Zurich
by Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian and his Turkish
counterpart Ahmet Davutoglu on October 10, 2009, after a series of
diplomatic talks held through Swiss mediation.
On January 12, 2010, the Constitutional Court of the Republic of
Armenia found the protocols conformable to the country's Organic Law.
