Yerevan, 30 March: The presence of Armenian delegation at a ceremony
to open the Armenian St Cross Church in Turkey was necessary, Armenian
Acting Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan told journalists today.
However, it would be better if Turkey made more specific steps towards
improving the Armenian-Turkish relations, and open the border. This
would be a helpful step in overcoming all the existing problems,
Oskanyan said.
"Let's not forget that we are talking about an Armenian cultural
monument. It belongs to us, we had to send our delegation at least
to show the world that it is our monument, our church," Oskanyan said.
