CHANGED

is putting forward preconditions in the issue of normalization of our
relations.
He mentioned that prospects of an establishment of Armenian-Turkish
relations, as well as the problem of a settlement of the Nagorno
Karabakh conflict were discussed during his meeting with his Turkish
counterpart Abdullah Gul held on June 25 in Istanbul within the
framework of the Summit of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation

process of the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, as well as
the Armenian side's position in that issue.
