/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Reasonable terms for Turkish parliament's
ratification of Protocols expire on April 24, 2010, RPA parliamentary
group member Gagik Minasyan said.
As Gagik Minasyan told a news conference in Yerevan, should Turkey
fail the rapprochement process, international community will hold
it responsible.
According to the parliamentarian, despite statements voiced by Turkish
officials, Turkey's parliament will ratify the Protocols. "By dragging
out the ratification, Turkey aims to gain more from the process,
which is unacceptable to us," Gagik Minasyan stressed.
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.
