YEREVAN, JUN E 6, ARMENPRESS: Turkey rejects on Hillary Clinton's
calls for Ankara to normalize ties with Armenia, noting that a
ruling by an Armenian court is main obstacle to a thaw. Turkish
diplomat at the interview with Hurriyet Daily News reporter announced
that the Armenia's Constitutional Court decision on the records on
Armenian-Turkish relations impede the regulations of the ties between
the states, Armenpress reports.
Turkey once again comes forth with destructive policy. "Turkey's
stance on this matter is clear" the Turk diplomat noted.
In accordance with the Armenia's Constitutional Court's decision the
records are consistent with the Constitution.
The fifth article of the court's ruling makes reference to Armenia's
declaration of independence in a manner that angered Turkey, while
the document's 11th paragraph says, "The Republic of Armenia stands
in support of the task of achieving international recognition of the
1915 genocide in Ottoman Turkey and Western Armenia." The accords,
signed by the foreign ministers of Turkey and Armenia in October 2009,
need parliamentary approval in both countries for ratification.
Hillary Clinton urged to ratify the minutes of the regulations of
ties without preconditions on June 4. "As I have already told during
my last visit to the region, the ball is in the Turk's court" the
Secretary of State stated.
