If Turkey agrees to ratify and implement the Protocols without preconditions, the Armenia-Turkey normalization process will be underway, RA Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian stated at the June 25 press conference in Yerevan.

However, today Turkey has returned to the language of preconditions, RA FM said. “For some reasons Ankara does not show respect for the Armenia-Turkey accords signed in Zurich. Turkey constantly reiterates that it does not set preconditions and does the opposite,” the Minister said. Not only Yerevan, but also the international community repeatedly stated on the matter, he noted.

Yerevan suspended Armenia-Turkey deal in April 2010 after Turkey constantly torpedoed the adoption of the documents in the Parliament.
