YEREVAN (YERKIR) - It's premature to make forecasts about possible
influence of Turkish parliamentary elections on Armenia, RA Deputy
Foreign Minister Armen Bayburdyan told reporters Wednesday.
"The parliamentary elections in Turkey reflect domestic processes and
any forecasts about Armenia are premature, since the AKP's election
program did not contain any provision referring to relations with
official Yerevan.
"Erdogan's party refrained from clearly representing its election
platform. Only after the new government proceeds to work it will be
possible to assess its positions," Mr Bayburdyan said.
When asked whether the elections may demonstrate a retreat from the
principles of a secular state, the RA Deputy FM said any remarks
can be merely theoretical at the moment, "for we base on practical
subject assessments," Novosti Armenia reports.
