The protocols signed in 2009 are more beneficial to Turkey and harmful
to Armenia. These protocols, signed three years ago, are in the
same state today, said the Responsible for ARF Hay Dat and political
issues Giro Manoian. According to him, the protocols are not dead,
they exist, they just are not active.
It was right not to have signed them at all. Manoian noted that the
fact that they have not been used for three years should be a ground
to abolish them. He proposed the easiest way which is the recalling
of the signature.
G.Manoian is sure that in case the protocols are ratified, Turkey
will receive much without giving anything.
According to the protocols, Turkey is supposed to restore diplomatic
relations with Armenia and remove the blockade, while none of these
provisions has been fulfilled so far. For Turkey, the protocols are
a lever to assume some role in the Karabakh issue settlement, says
Manoian. Turkey assumed it has the right to issue statements on the
Stepanakert airport which is a contradiction to the OSCE Minsk Group
co-chairs statement which informs the parties agreed on the flights.
According to Manoian, the situation will get worse if the protocols
are ratified.
