PanARMENIAN.Net - On October 21, 2009, Armenian-Turkish protocols
were discussed in Turkish Parliament, turkologist Ruben Melkonyan said.
"If Boskir does not know that protocols have already been discussed
in Turkish Parliament, he would better check their archives. It will
be naïve from the Armenian side to expect any developments due to
Turkey's unconstructive position in the issue," the turkologist told
a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter commenting on Turkish MP Mustafa Boskir's
statement regarding Armenian-Turkish protocols.
Ruben Melkonyan also noted that due to Turkish stance on the issue
Ankara more than once was urged to give various explanations.
Armenian-Turkish normalization process started on RA President Serzh
Sargsyan's initiative in fall 2008. On October 10, 2009 Armenian and
Turkish Foreign Ministers signed protocols expected to be ratified
by parliaments of both states.
In August 2011, the protocols were removed from Turkish parliament's
agenda and were brough back in October.
