    TURKEY TO RENEW DIALOGUE WITH ARMENIA

    Vestnik Kavkaza

    Russia

    Ankara is searching for ways to renew dialogue with Yerevan, Armenia
    Today reports.

    Ankara is trying to use the OSCE Council of Foreign Ministers in
    Vilnius to smoothen relations with Yerevan. Turkish Minister Ahmet
    Davutoglu met his Swiss counterpart Micheline Calmy-Rey who mediated
    development of protocols to normalize Armenian-Turkish ties earlier.

    The meeting is to clarify whether Switzerland wants to play the same
    role in helping resolve the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh
    conflict.

    Turkey is under serious US pressure in normalizing relations with
    Armenia. The Armenian community of the US urges Washington to recognize
    the genocide of 1915. Vice-President Joe Biden said that a major
    anti-Turkish campaign is ongoing. The Jewish and Greek communities
    support the Armenian in the issue. There are concerns that a new
    attempt of recognizing the Armenian genocide at the Senate may be
    approved by the US legislatives for the coming presidential polls.
