“Despite the fact that Turks were, and remain unready to establish relations with Armenia without preconditions, it is very important for us to feel the attitude of the U.S. administration on the matter,” RA President Serzh Sargsyan said during the meeting with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.  He also expressed gratitude to President Barack Obama and the Secretary of State for their attempts to normalize Armenian-Turkish relations.

In her turn, Hillary Clinton thanked the Armenian leader for his personal contribution to the improvement of relations with Turkey.

She noted that U.S. is definitely interested in the matter. Washington believes that the solution to the issue meets the interests of Armenian people from the viewpoint of regional development and creation of new opportunities.
