TURKEY HAD BETTER NOT POKE ITS NOSE INTO KARABAKH CONFLICT SETTLEMENT: SHARMAZANOV
Tert.am
13.04.10
"I would not like to believe that a Foreign Ministry high-ranking
official has made such a statement. But even if he has said anything
like that, he must have either a stroke or rather a bright and ill
imagination," Press Secretary of the Republican Party of Armenia
Eduard Sharmazanov told Tert.am, commenting on Turkish Foreign Minister
Ahmet Davutoglu's interview to the Azerbaijani APA news agency.
According to Sharmazanov the Turkish foreign minister must realize
that the leader of any country cannot explain anything to the leader
of another country or tell him what to do, as "that is not correct."
"Even more, it leaves an impression that it is the first time
that Davutoglu has been familiar with the Zurich Protocols, as
he mentioned that one of their main targets is the liberation of
Armenian territories. There is no mention of it in the Protocols,"
said Sharmazanov, advising Turkey not to intrude in the Karabakh
settlement issue.
"Turkey had better not to poke its nose into the Karabakh conflict
settlement issue as there is an OSCE Minsk Group [in charge]. Turkey
must understand well enough that neither the Minsk Group nor Armenia
will let it partake in the [settlement] process," warned Sharmazanov.
As what concerns the Armenian Genocide, Sharmazanov reminded Turkish FM
Davutoglu that 42 out of the 50 states of USA have recognized it, and
former US President Ronald Reagan even pronounced the word "genocide."
"Our president has clearly stated that no one can speak with Armenia
with pre-conditions," concluded Sharmazanov, advising Turkey ratify
the Protocols instead of talking an empty talk.
