Vahan Hovhannisyan says Armenia must continue claiming opening of
Armenian-Turkish border
YEREVAN, JULY 23, ARMENPRESS: Armenia must continue claiming the
opening of the Armenian-Turkish border, as it has been closed by
Turkey illegally, head of the NA ARF faction Vahan Hovhannisyan said
today at a meeting with journalists. According to him, the closing of
the border is a way of conducting war.
`Armenia has serious legal levies here and must continue claiming the
opening of the Armenian-Turkish border. There are numerous
international conventions, particularly, the convention on the
countries, which do not have entrance to sea', V. Hovhannisyan said.
According to him, the right solution in the current stage is the
recalling of the signatures of the Zurich documents.
He added that the regulation process of Armenian-Turkish relations has
reached a deadlock. `Turkey has distinctly said that it will not
ratify the protocols as long as there is no Azerbaijan-inclined
solution in the regulation process of the issue. In my opinion, we
must not put the stress on ratification of the protocols, but should
remember that our goal is opening of the border with Turkey, and the
protocols were just a way to open the border,' V. Hovhannisyan said.
