The Wall Street Journal recently published a story on the latest
developments in Armenia-Turkey relations and the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict settlement process. For the story, the American publication
spoke with the Armenian president's Deputy Chief of Staff Vigen
Sargsyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev.
"Now we are approaching the moment when things get more and more
difficult," said Sargsyan, adding that Armenia's government is sending
Protocols ratification papers to parliament, while also preparing
legislation to enable the president to withdraw his signature from
the treaties.
"If this opportunity is lost it will push the whole region back, not
to where we started when talks began, but beyond that," said Sargsyan,
adding that trust between the two sides would be destroyed.
The Wall Street Journal also mentions that on Wednesday, "Azerbaijan
President Ilham Aliyev added to concerns for the deal when he said
he was confident Turkey wouldn't ratify the agreement until Armenia
has returned Azeri territory that it occupies, including the mainly
ethnic Armenian region of Nagorno-Karabakh."
