conflict, delaying their ratification it was breaking the process
of normalization.
As to the NK issue Hovik Abrahamyan said that NK can never be part
of Azerbaijan. The conflict must be regulated with the framework of
the OSCE Minsk Group.
Lukac Abgarovic said that Poland thinks that NK issue and establishment
of Armenian-Turkish relations are separate issues and must not be
linked with each other. He noted that finally Turkey must recognize
the Armenian genocide.
