The Armenian-Turkey normalization process is not dead, and this is
a period of silent diplomacy, said Turkish President Abdullah Gul
during his official visit to the Democratic Republic of Congo.
According to Turkish daily Today's Zaman, he condemned the adoption
of resolutions on recognizing the Armenian Genocide by different
countries, adding it affects the Armenia-Turkey rapprochement
negatively.
"We will continue working consistently on the matter. Sometimes
tough issues are resolved through silent diplomacy," said the Turkish
president.
Gul also said Turkey was ahead of Armenia in terms of ratifying the
Armenia-Turkey Protocols, since, unlike Yerevan, Ankara immediately
sent the Protocols to parliament for ratification.
