I call on Russia to be initiative in Karabakh issue: Erdogan
13:54 / 01/15/2010After his return from Moscow, Turkish Premier
Erdogan restated his stance on Armenia-Turkey reconciliation and
Karabakh conflict settlement.
According to Turkish Bugun website, Erdogan said, `It is obvious that
Armenia-Turkey reconciliation and Karabakh conflict settlement are
interrelated processes off-stage.
Armenia-Turkey border closed as a result of Armenian-Azerbaijani
conflict. In order to tackle this issue peace should be ensured. The
conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan should be resolved.
&`Occupation' of Karabakh should end, thereafter Armenia-Turkey issue
will be easily solved. Turkey undertook certain steps, opened air
service, carried out reforms. Presently, numerous Armenians reside in
Turkey without citizenship.
I once again call on Russia to be more initiative in Karabakh issue. I
had open conversation with Mr. Medvedev and Mr. Putin. Russia impacts
Armenia most of any other OSCE Minsk Group states. Once it becomes
less initiative in Karabakh peace process, the settlement will become
more complex,' Turkish Premier stated.
