ArmInfo. US President Barack Obama and Prime Minister Recep Tayyip
Erdogan met in Washington on Monday and discussed the Armenian-
Turkish relations and the Karabakh peace process.
Official website of the White House reported Obama as saying: "I also
congratulated the Prime Minister on some courageous steps that he
has taken around the issue of normalizing Turkish/Armenian relations,
and encouraged him to continue to move forward along this path."
For his part, the Turkish prime minister said: "We have also
discussed relations between Azerbaijan and Armenia, which is of great
importance. This is important in the context of Turkish-Armenian
relations. We have discussed the Minsk Group and what the Minsk
Group can do -- the United States, Russia, and France -- to add more
impetus to that process. I can say that to have more impetus in the
Minsk process is going to have a very positive impact on the overall
process, because the normalization process between Turkey and Armenia
is very much related to these issues. As the administration in Turkey,
we are determined to move forward in this area."
