Baku - APA. "Official Yerevan is seriously considering the issue
of recalling the Armenian-Turkish Protocols from the parliament",
President Serzh Sargsyan stated in his speech at the 69th session of
the UN General Assembly, APA reports quoting Armenian media.
"Armenia has never conditioned the normalization of the bilateral
relations with Turkey by recognition of the "Armenian Genocide". In
fact, Armenia was the party that initiated such a process which
culminated in the signing of the Zurich Protocols. However, those
Protocols have been shelved for years now awaiting ratification
in the Turkish Parliament. Ankara declares publicly that it will
ratify those Protocols only if Armenians cede Nagorno-Karabakh to
Azerbaijan. In Armenia and Karabakh ordinary people often just retort
to such preconditions: "To hell with your ratification." It is in
these circumstances that currently the official Yerevan is seriously
considering the issue of recalling the Armenian-Turkish Protocols
from the parliament," President Sargsyan stated", Sargsyan said.
