The relations between Ankara and Yerevan can remain partial, Turkish
Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said at a press-conference during
the visit to Saudi Arabia, CNN Turk agency reported.
Prime-Minister said the relations between Ankara and Yerevan will
remain partial due to Armenian Constitutional Court's demands.
Turkish and Armenian foreign ministers Ahmet Davutoglu and Edward
Nalbandian signed the Ankara-Yerevan protocols in Zurich Oct. 10.
Diplomatic relations between Armenia and Turkey were broken due
to Armenian claims of an alleged genocide and its occupation of
Azerbaijani lands. Their border closed in 1993.
Despite some people see no connection between the normalization of
relations between Turkey and Armenia and resolving the Nagorno-Karabakh
problem, this process is directly related to the settlement of the
conflict, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said earlier
in an interview after his official visit to Moscow.
