Yesterday Armenian and Turkish Foreign Ministers Edward Nalbandyan and Ahmet Davutoglu signed the Armenia-Turkey Protocols in Zurich. The documents should be ratified by both countries’ Parliaments. As NEWS.am already reported signing ceremony took place in tensed atmosphere. Turkish delegation tried to include a number of thesis related to Karabakh conflict in their final statement. According to the position of official Yerevan and international mediators, Karabakh peace process and Armenia-Turkey rapprochement are not linked. After the protests of Armenian side and interference of U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, the problem was solved. In particular, both sides decided not to make final statements and immediately left after signing ceremony.
