    Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said that the reconciliation
    process with Armenia is continuing, pledging that efforts in this
    regard will not cease until the advent of peace in the Caucasus;
    at the same time he stressed Turkey's 'special brotherly ties with
    Azerbaijan' in this context.

    Davutoglu, on Monday, answering reporters' question whether a new
    process will be kicked off after Armenia suspended proceeding with
    protocols in April of this year, said the reconciliation process
    between Turkey and Armenia has never stopped so there is no need to
    start a new one.

    The Turkish foreign minister assured that the process is a continuing
    one for Turkey and that it will not finish until the advent of peace
    in the Caucasus.

    Reminded that in late September, he met with Swiss Foreign Minister
    Micheline Calmy-Rey, who made great efforts in mediating between
    Turkey and Armenia, Davutoglu said he always exchanges views on this
    matter with the relevant sides.

    Davutoglu spoke about his past two meetings with Azerbaijani Foreign
    Minister Elmar Mammadyarov in New York to discuss this issue.

    The Turkish foreign minister also claimed that the political dialogue
    with Armenia must continue and that the sides should mutually respect
    borders for a lasting peace in the Caucasus.

    In this framework, Davutoglu said, Azerbaijan is a special and
    brotherly country and that Turkey will continue to make every effort
    to revamp relations with Armenia as a neighboring country.
