/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan should get
"a bit riper" before a debate is launched on the committee floor over
Armenian-Turkish protocols, protocols, according to Murat Mercan,
Chairman of foreign relations committee at Turkish parliament.
"We are all eager to bring the protocols to the committee and the
parliamentary floor, and we do want to see relations get normal but
at this time, it would be in vain to debate the issue which is highly
likely to be revoked by the committee," Anatolian News agency quoted
Turkish official as sying.
"The Turkish people are very sensitive about the rapprochement between
Azerbaijan and Armenia, as well as Azerbaijan's rights. Efforts to
settle problems will help Turkey to ratify the protocols," Mercan
further noted.
The Protocols aimed at normalization of bilateral ties and opening of
the 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.
Efforts to settle problems parties will enable Turkey to ratify
the protocols.
