Armenian Foreign Affairs Minister Edward Nalbandian's answer to Haylur News Program.

Question: How would you comment the statement released by the Turkish MFA that the decision reached by the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Armenia dated from January 12, 2010 contains preconditions, which undermine the very reason of the Protocols.

Answer: I intend to contact my counterpart Mr. Davutoglu, to express my doubts, and clarify where in the decision of the Constitutional Court of Armenia the Turkish side sees preconditions and how they contradict undermine the very reason of the Protocols.

I hope that by such a statement the Turkish side is not attempting to justify its continuous efforts of put preconditions and cover up its needless delays in the ratification process.
