/PanARMENIAN.Net/ There is no political motive for Turkey's refusal
to participate in parliamentary hearings in Armenia, EU Special
Representative for the South Caucasus Peter Semneby said in Yerevan.
"The date of the hearings coincided with one of the Islamic religious
holidays. Religion plays an important role in Turkey's decision not
reject Yerevan's invitation," he said. "I am hopeful that hearings
of the kind will be continued, since they provide the possibility to
speak of disputable issues.
The public of the two states should be prepared for a normal dialogue
and the EU will contribute to the process."
