Turkish Foreign Minister should take the chance and visit the Armenian
Genocide Memorial in Yerevan to pay a tribute to the victims of that
heinous crime, rather than make provocative statements prior to his
visit to Yerevan, Armenian Deputy Foreign Minister Shavarsh Kocharyan
said, while commenting on Ahmet Davutoglu's latest statement on
Armenian-Turkish relations and regional issues in an interview with
Armenpress, Armenian Foreign Ministry said.
According to Kocharyan, Turkey can contribute to the normalization
of relations with Armenia by ratifying and carrying out the
Armenian-Turkish Protocols without any preconditions.
"If Turkey wishes to speed up the establishment of civilized
relations between the countries of the region, it must recognize
the Armenian Genocide perpetrated by the Ottoman Empire and open the
Armenian-Turkish border which it closed," Kocharyan concluded.
