    TURKISH FM: AZERBAIJAN IS AWARE OF ALL NEGOTIATIONS BETWEEN TURKEY AND ARMENIA

    Azerbaijan is aware of all the negotiations that Turkey holds for the
    normalization of relations, Turkey Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu
    said today in Ankara on the eve of his visit to Baku, Anadolu agency
    reported.

    "We always inform Azerbaijan about this issue [the normalization
    of Armenian-Turkish relations]. Turkey has seriously thought over
    each step before putting his signature [on the Zurich protocols]," -
    Davutoglu said at a joint press conference with Iraqi Vice President
    Tariq Al-Hashimi.

    Davutoglu arrived today in Baku on a working visit to discuss
    the results of meetings in the U.S. and the settlement of
    Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict with the country's
    leadership. Before arriving in Baku Davutoglu said that without
    ratification of the Armenian-Turkish protocols Turkey will not open
    borders with Armenia.

    "Henceforth, given the political views of all sides the policy will be
    much calmer and not so open. Turkey remains committed to all the signed
    documents and the process of normalizing relations with Armenia," -
    Davutoglu said.

    Regarding President Serzh Sargsyan' statements on whether Turkey can
    open borders with Armenia without the ratification of the protocols,
    Davutoglu categorically refused, adding that "Sargsyan expressed his
    hopes and expectations, but Turkey in no case will include the opening
    of the borders without the ratification of protocols in the agenda."
