Armenia
YEREVAN. - Armenian Parliament must remove Armenian-Turkish protocols
from the agenda at the first session - this is an urgent issue and
even a belated step, said Chairman of Standing Committee on Defense,
National Security and Internal Affairs, MP from ARFD party Hrayr
Karapetyan.
According to him, Armenian government must take urgent steps to
call off its signature from the protocols and lay all responsibility
on Turkey.
"Armenia should have withdrawn its signature long ago, particularly
when Turkish side announced that it considers Karabakh conflict as
a precondition for normalizing diplomatic relations between two states.
This might have been very serious ground for Armenia to recognize
the signature as invalid," said the MP.
Grand National Assembly of Turkey recently withdrew Armenia-Turkey
Protocols signed on October 2009 between Armenia and Turkey.
In April 2010 President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan suspended the
ratification of the protocols in response to the attempts of Turkish
side to put forth preconditions.
