"The main and only reason for the suspension of the process is
resumption of the Turkish attempt to link the normalization of
relations with other issues. After the signing of the protocols,
Turkey backtracked and started again to speak in the language of
preconditions, for instance attempting to link the Armenian-Turkish
normalization process to Nagorno-Karabakh conflict resolution. Not
only Armenia, but also the mediators, supporters of this process,
the whole international community, have publicly made it clear
that Nagorno-Karabakh conflict resolution has no linkage to the
Armenian-Turkish normalization process. And that such a linkage
could damage both processes," RA Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian
told to interview to the Austrian journal the "Profile" applying to
the observation of the journalist that the most important reason for
the suspension of the negotiations with Turkey is the conflict over
Nagorno Karabakh.
To the question whether there have been domestical pressure by the
ANC responsible for the abandonment of the negotiations Minister
answered that Discontent by many Armenians, not only in Armenia,
but also in Diaspora is motivated by the lack of confidence towards
Turkey's good faith.
"And the reason for suspension is conditioned by the fact that Turkey
today is unable to respect reached agreements, its commitments and
given words."
To the request of the journalist to comment on Turkey's sharp changed
for the normalization of the relations, the foreign minister of
Armenia answered, "I could only say that almost nobody understands."
