    ANKARA SENDS MESSAGE TO YEREVAN: NO LINK BETWEEN GENOCIDE RESOLUTION AND PROTOCOLS?

    Tert.am
    16:30 ~U 11.03.10

    Since the US House Committee on Foreign Affairs narrowly passed
    H.Res.252 recognizing the Armenian Genocide, Ankara is sending the
    first message to Yerevan - though an unofficial one.

    Ankara, highlighting that the adoption of the Genocide Resolution and
    the ratification of Armenia-Turkey Protocols are independent processes,
    mentions that the Protocols are not "dead" and expects that Yerevan
    will take some steps regarding the ruling by Armenia's Constitutional
    Court, reports Today's Zaman, citing anonymous diplomatic sources.

    According to the Turkish publication, sources say that the ratification
    of the Protocols will continue, adding that what Ankara expects from
    Yerevan in relation to the Constitutional Court's ruling is written
    guarantees or a political obligation.

    At the same time, the paper recalls that after the adoption of
    Armenian Genocide Resolution the Turkish Deputy Foreign Minister and
    his assistant went to Russia and presented Turkey's expectations on
    the Nagorno-Karabakh resolution and also discussed possible ways to
    secure progress in the settlement of this conflict.
