    RF NOT TRY TO MEDIATE ARMENIAN-TURKISH SETTLEMENT - LUKASHEVICH

    ITAR-TASS, Russia
    October 27, 2011 Thursday 07:29 PM EST

    Russia is not trying to mediate the settlement of Armenian-Turkish
    relations, Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich said
    on Thursday.

    Answering a question if it is possible to consider the telephone
    conversation between Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, Armenian
    President Serzh Sargsyan and their Turkish colleague an attempt to
    mediate the normalisation of Armenian-Turkish relations, Lukashevich
    said, "As I know Dmitry Medvedev and Serzh Sargsyan phoned their
    Turkish colleague to express condolences on the devastating earthquake
    that hit the country and convey their support. I wouldn't interpret
    these words as the readiness to mediate in the normalisation of
    relations."

    Armenian-Turkish protocols on the establishment of diplomatic relations
    and on the principles of bilateral relations between the two countries
    were signed on October 12 in Zurich, Switzerland, by the Armenian and
    Turkish foreign ministers in the presence of the foreign ministers
    of Russia and France, Sergei Lavrov and Bernard Kouchner, as ell as
    U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
