In an interview with Al Jazeera television, Turkish Foreign Minister
Ahmet Davutoglu said the government would not impose pressure on
Parliament to accept the protocols but that a positive development in
Azerbaijani-Armenian relations would affect the parliamentary approval
process positively. The psychological and political atmosphere had
significance for such agreements to be approved, he said, the Hurriyet
Daily News reports.
Asked whether the acceptance of the protocols by the Turkish Parliament
depended on a development in the Nagorno-Karabakh issue, Davutoglu
said [no matter when they are approved] the protocols would have a
positive effect on stability in the southern Caucasus, especially in
the resolution of the Karabakh conflict.
"A development in this field would definitely have a positive effect
on the acceptance process. However, if the situation gets worse or if
there is no longer hope that there can be a positive development, in
that case our parliamentarians will have a negative inclination. This
is why we need to work on a positive scenario now," he said.
