    Ankara returns Armenia-Turkey protocols to parliament

    14:44 - 24.09.11


    Turkey's Council of Ministers has returned the Armenia-Turkey
    protocols to parliament to resume discussions over the documents, the
    Turkish newspaper Takvim reported, characterizing the move as a fine
    gesture to Yerevan.

    Following the recent parliamentary election in Turkey, the Protocols
    on the Establishment of Diplomatic Ties, and Development of Bilateral
    Relations between Armenia and Turkey were declared null and void.

    Under the Turkish chief lamaking body's rules of procedure, any bill
    not approved and enforced by the previous parliament should be
    invalidated by the parliament of the new convocation. But the Council
    of Ministers and lawmakers are also vested with the power to bring the
    invalidated bills to the agenda.

    The Armenia-Turkey protocols were signed on October 10, 2009 in
    Zurich, Switzerland.
