ArmInfo. There are no essential changes in the foreign policy of
Turkey at the moment, Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan said
at a press conference Thursday.
As for his recent meeting with the new Foreign Minister of Turkey Ali
Babacan, Vardan Oskanyan said it was the first meeting of the Armenian
and Turkish foreign ministers after the last presidential election
in that country. 'There were some expectations in this respect.
However, there are no essential changes in Turkey's foreign policy
at the moment. Turkey's interests are in processes, ours are in the
results. There is no commonality so far, ' the minister said. At
the same time, he said the Armenian party intends to continue the
meetings with Turkish foreign and deputy foreign ministers. 'But we
shall not consider these meetings as part of the process since there
is no such between Armenia and Turkey so far.
These will be isolated meetings of necessity, ' Vardan Oskanyan
said. He also added that Deputy Minister of Armenia Arman Kirakosyan
is currently in Ankara to participate in the meeting of OBSEC Council
of Foreign Ministers.
'I do not rule out that he may meet his Turkish colleague. But, I'd
like to reiterate that the meeting will not be part of the process,'
the minister said.
