Many say, here is a simple example, that an agreement was reached, that agreement is not being implemented, you should, meaning I should record the failure of that policy. I do not agree with that. Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said this in an interview with Turkish media.

"Both I and our political team are determined, patient, consistent to achieve the point that the region is a source of stability, peace and prosperity for the Republic of Armenia through conversation, dialogue, facts and arguments. But for this to happen, the region must also be a source of peace, cooperation, prosperity, security and stability for other countries in the region. Of course, I cannot think for other countries and formulate for the interests of other countries, but also after the 2021 elections, a point was included in our Government's program, we call that point regionalization.

It is just a word, but it contains many layers, this means that when conducting our policies, we perceive ourselves, first of all, as a regional country," - he said.

According to him, at a time when it was on the agenda that there should be contacts between representatives of Armenia and Turkey, the very fact that such contact is taking place could have a very complex reaction on social networks.

Naturally, the public's reaction also somewhat constrains the government elected by that public.

"But now I consider it a very important achievement, I will mention a very simple thing, which may seem simple at first glance, but is symbolic, that for example, when I have meetings with the leaders of various countries in New York, and we post small materials about my meetings on my Facebook page, on the way back I record that my meeting with the President of Turkey has been the most popular among users of our social networks, with the most views, the most likes. I look at it with surprise. But now it may seem, well, we are discussing Facebook likes, but I say again, we need to be in the dynamics. For example, our first meeting was not like that, but on the contrary, even the fact of the meeting was mainly against a negative background, why should the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia have such a meeting, etc. In other words, I mean that many complexes have already been overcome, which in practical terms are not reflected in statistics, trade turnover, etc., but it is a very important thing. And I I consider it an achievement, I must say it directly. I consider it an achievement and this is also the reason why I tell the pessimists that it is too early to record the failure of this direction and this policy.

Moreover, I am convinced that if we move forward with these small steps consistently, calmly, based on arguments, in an atmosphere of mutual respect, the question will not be whether there will be a normalization or not. The question will be when there will be a normalization. It will only be a matter of time, which will, in turn, of course, be affected by a variety of circumstances. This normalization may be postponed for another three months, another six months, another year. But today my perception is that it is a matter of time, and we must patiently walk with that time and, first of all, be guided by the logic of not doing any harm. If we do not cause very specific intentional harm to this process, in my opinion, the normalization of Armenia-Turkey relations is now a matter of time", - he noted.
