“Turkish government’s policy of normalizing ties with Armenia is difficult to predict.”
“I am concerned over initiatives of “progress” including “Armenian progress”,” Member of Turkish parliament from Republican People’s Party Birgen Kelesh said.
“Armenian progress” has been initiated because of borders,” she said.
“We back normalization of relation with neighbors. However, current situation must also be taken into account,” she added.
“Armenia’s claims of “genocide”, territorial claims to Turkey and occupation of Azerbaijani territories are basic facts that hinder normalization of Turkish-Armenian relations. These factors have not been eliminated and Armenia makes no effort to eliminate them. The Turkish government has given two promises: one to Azerbaijan and another to Armenia. I wonder which of the promises the government will keep,” the Turkish MP said.
“Armenia will never agree to Turkey’s mediation in peaceful resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict,” the MP said.
