  • BAKU: Yerevan rules out Ankara's mediation in NK talks

    YEREVAN RULES OUT ANKARAS MEDIATION IN GARABAGH TALKS


    Armenian Foreign Minister Eduard Nalbandian has said that Turkey might
    interfere with the Armenia-Azerbaijan Upper (Nagorno) Garabagh
    conflict by exerting influence on Azerbaijan, but the country is not
    considered a mediator in peace talks between Armenia and Azerbaijan.
    Nalbandian told a news conference on Thursday that Yerevan continued
    efforts to better relations with Turkey. Improving Turkey-Armenia
    relations is important not only for Armenia but also for the entire
    region. Armenia has never turned down dialogue with Turkey and is
    ready to settle any problems. Yerevan is in talks with Turkey without
    leveling conditions, he said. The diplomat said the international
    community was also interested in bettering relations between Armenia
    and Turkey. Yerevan does not hold talks with Turkey for the sake of
    appearance. This does not even suit us.*
