Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said that the reconciliation
process with Armenia is continuing, pledging that efforts in this
regard will not cease until the advent of peace in the Caucasus;
at the same time he stressed Turkey's 'special brotherly ties with
Azerbaijan' in this context.
Davutoglu, on Monday, answering reporters' question whether a new
process will be kicked off after Armenia suspended proceeding with
protocols in April of this year, said the reconciliation process
between Turkey and Armenia has never stopped so there is no need to
start a new one.
The Turkish foreign minister assured that the process is a continuing
one for Turkey and that it will not finish until the advent of peace
in the Caucasus.
Reminded that in late September, he met with Swiss Foreign Minister
Micheline Calmy-Rey, who made great efforts in mediating between
Turkey and Armenia, Davutoglu said he always exchanges views on this
matter with the relevant sides.
Davutoglu spoke about his past two meetings with Azerbaijani Foreign
Minister Elmar Mammadyarov in New York to discuss this issue.
The Turkish foreign minister also claimed that the political dialogue
with Armenia must continue and that the sides should mutually respect
borders for a lasting peace in the Caucasus.
In this framework, Davutoglu said, Azerbaijan is a special and
brotherly country and that Turkey will continue to make every effort
to revamp relations with Armenia as a neighboring country.
