  • Sargsyan: Will consider further action with appropriate atmosphere

    Armenian President: We will consider the possibility of further action
    when we see appropriate atmosphere in Turkey

    ArmInfo. We have not shut the door but we are not going to take any
    further steps either. We will consider the possibility of further
    action when we feel that there is appropriate atmosphere in Turkey and
    when we see a government committed to normalize the relations,
    President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan said in an interview to RIA
    Novosti.

    Armenia has not withdrawn its signatures from the protocols as it
    wants to preserve the possibility of rapprochement. "We want peace.
    Our political goals to normalize relations with Turkey are still in
    force," Sargsyan said. He said that the "pacta sunt servanda"
    ("agreements must be kept") principle is the basis of the
    international law. "The Armenian-Turkish protocols were result of long
    and hard talks. Both sides were most clear in expressing their
    positions and both were aware of what was possible and impossible for
    them. In this light, we dismiss any attempts to link the ratification
    process with other problems. The international community has made it
    very clear that the protocols should be ratified as soon as possible
    without preconditions. Turkey has failed both parts of this test,"
    Sargsyan said.
