    Turkey denies claims it will open Armenia border gate

    13:08 05.07.2014


    Turkey has denied claims that the border gate between Armenia and
    Turkey will be opened, World Bulletin reports.

    The denial came after a Turkish newspaper published a claim that
    Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan had issued an order that
    the Alican Border Gate, which has been closed since 1993, be opened.

    Turkey's Foreign Ministry spokesman Tanju Bilgic said in a written
    statement on Friday: "The claims that the Alican Border Gate located
    between Turkey and Armenia will be opened do not reflect the truth."

    Bilgic said the opening of the gate would be considered by Turkey only
    if the relations in Southern Caucasus started a normalization process.

    "Armenia needs to show its will to begin normalizing its relations
    with Azerbaijan and take the necessary steps accordingly," said Bilgic
