    CHARLES AZNAVOUR HOPES FOR IMPROVEMENT OF ARMENIAN-TURKISH RELATIONS AFTER PRESIDENT GUL'S VISIT TO YEREVAN

    ARKA
    Sep 8, 2008

    YEREVAN, September 8. /ARKA/. Turkish President Abdullah Gul's visit
    to Armenia will boost diplomatic relations between both countries,
    renowned French-Armenian chanson entertainer Charles Aznavour said
    in his letter to Armenia's President Serzh Sargsyan.

    He approved of Sargsyan's bold initiative to invite his Turkish
    counterpart to Armenia-Turkey World Cup 2010 qualifier.

    Aznavour said he would like to be in Yerevan in order not to miss
    the Turkish President's landmark visit to Armenia, but he could not
    attend the soccer match due to health problems.

    The chanson entertainer vowed he would be with the Armenian team in
    his thoughts.

    Gul is the first Turkish leader to visit Armenia. Ankara and Yerevan
    had no diplomatic ties since 1993.

    Official Ankara formerly said the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh
    conflict and rejection of the international recognition of the Armenian
    Genocide are the main requisites for the establishment of diplomatic
    relations between both countries.

    In its turn, official Yerevan expresses readiness to re-establish
    diplomatic relations with Turkey without any preconditions.
