    Statements by the Turkish Prime Minister about deportation
    of all Armenians from Turkey do not contribute to promoting the
    Armenian-Turkish dialogue, Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian
    said in a briefing with Slovakian Foreign Minister Miroslav LajÄ~Mák.

    Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan in an interview with BBC
    threatened to deport all Armenians illegally residing in Turkey.

    According to him, today Turkey is home to around 170,000 Armenians,
    of whom only 70 thousand are Turkish citizens.

    This statement has provoked serious discussions inside Turkey itself,
    and many do not understand how such a statement could be made, the
    Armenian FM noted.

    "We need to move forward and implement those agreements and
    understandings reached between the two countries," Nalbandian added.
