Following the Turkey-Serbia-Bosnia meeting, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu answered journalists’ questions concerning RA President Serzh Sargsyan’s latest message to his Turkish counterpart Abdullah Gul.

Haberturk quotes the Turkish FM as saying: “It is a custom to send messages like that while flying over other states. The leaders of all states do so. Mr. Sargsyan expressed his positive attitude,” Davutoglu said.

On February 9, the Armenian President addressed an open message to his Turkish counterpart. He pointed out that the Armenia-Turkey reconciliation is the focus of international attention. “This is a really historic moment. And not only we, but also the while world are aware of it. The political powers present in the region have made invaluable contribution to the improvement of bilateral relations. I am sure that we would be difficult for us to move forward without their mediation. On the other hand, I think that however much the friendly states are interested in the positive results, they cannot do what our two nations can,” the Armenian leader stated in his message.
