Representative of the Armenian National Congress, leader of the Liberal
Party Hovhannes Hovhannisyan considers that the Armenian-Turkish
relations had to have started earlier. "We had to start earlier,
since it would enable Armenia to enter regional integration processes.
Hovhannes Hovhannisyan said he welcomes President Serzh Sargsyan's
initiative of establishing bilateral relations with Turkey. "I
welcome this step. He is going to solve issues, but any solution has
its price."
The leader of the Liberal Party is confident that the pre-signed
protocols include preconditions, but they are written in the language
of European diplomacy.
Why did the Armenian National Congress refuse to participate in
yesterday's discussions dedicated to the Armenian-Turkish relations?
"Because it was a formal discussion and because discussions in this
format often yield no results," Hovhannes Hovhannisyan said.
