Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan has addressed a letter to the
Speaker of the National Assembly Galust Sahakyan, informing about his
decision to recall the Armenian-Turkish Protocols from the National
Assembly. The letter reads, in part:
"Respected Mr. Sahakyan,
When launching the process of normalization of the Armenian-Turkish
relations without preconditions, we were fully aware of all possible
scenarios of future development. We were ready for both comprehensive
normalization of relations through ratification of the protocols and
their failure. We had nothing to conceal, as it would become clear
to the world which party was guilty of missing the chance to open
the last closed border in Europe.
Almost six years have passed from the signing of the Armenian-Turkish
protocols. Throughout this period Armenia has consistently backed
the realization of the protocols.
However, we cannot but stress the lack of political will on the part
of turkey, the distortion of the letter and spirit of the protocols
