YEREVAN, JANUARY 26, ARMENPRESS: Turkey goes on speaking in a language
of preconditions, NA member Gagik Minasyan said today at a meeting
with journalists, referring to the statement of the Turkish President,
according to which Armenia must leave the Azerbaijani territories.
"It is more than obvious that the Nagorno Karabakh Republic has been
self-determined in its territory, it has not used any other territory.
Moreover, one of the territories founded by it -Shahumyan, is a
part of Azerbaijan up to now. If there is an issue of speaking of
expropriating of other state, Turkey must be the first to show itself
as an occupant of our friend country - Cyprus," Mr. Minasyan said.
According to him, speaking in a language of preconditions, Turkey once
more gives a way to the way of acting which has already discredited it.
Referring to the current round of regulation of Armenian-Turkish
relations, the parliament member said that the process is in a passive
stage, but has not expired itself. Speaking of Armenian President
Serzh Sargsyan's visits to Cyprus and Greece, Mr. Minasyan noted that
there are prospects of serious development of interstate relations.
"I think a country like Cyprus, which has an issue of restoration
of territorial integrity, will support the perceptions of Armenia in
regard to NK issue regulation within the EU frameworks. The Chairman
of Cyprus, being the first among the countries of the European Union,
distinctly stressed that he sees the realization of self-determination
right of peoples in the basis of regulation of the Karabakh issue,"
Mr. Minasyan said.
The parliamentarian noted that Serzh Sargsyan's latest visits are in
accordance with the undertaking foreign policy declared by him.
According to him, in the sphere of bilateral relations agreements have
been gained for development of economic, cultural and educational
spheres. It has been registered the political relations between the
two countries suggest that the economic cooperation must be deeper,
more efficient and diverse.
The representatives of the business circles accompanying the president,
too, have reached agreements. According to Mr. Minasyan, we must expect
them to give their positive results in near future both by investment
of the Greek and Cyprian capital in Armenia and by establishment of
joint ventures.
