    YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 16, ARMENPRESS: Vice President of Armenian National
    Assembly Hermine Naghdalyan on February 16 met with journalists of
    more than 10 Turkish press and media agencies. Greeting the visit of
    Turkish reporters to Armenia, Hermine Naghdalyan has highly evaluated
    the role of such initiation in ensuring the contact between Armenian
    and Turkish nations, assuring that every issue even the most
    complicated one had to be spoken about.

    Armenpress reports, representative of `Hrant Dink' fund, member of the
    delegation Bursu Besermen has expressed gratitude for the reception
    and noted that annual mutual visits, organized by the fund gives a
    great opportunity for having a progress in Armenian-Turkish relations.

    During the discussion one of Turkish reporters expressed its surprise
    over the calm and peaceful situation on the streets just two days
    before presidential elections. NA Vice President responded that was
    the evidence of the great work carried out by Armenia on its way to
    democracy. `Years ago, being in different European countries we were
    surprised by the peaceful situation in the country before such an
    important event. Nowadays the same image is in Armenia,' Hermine
    Naghdalyan commented.

    be included in the agenda of National Assembly, despite, numerous
    suggestions to remove them. Hermine Naghdalyan has highlighted that
    Turkey is the only European country, which keeps its borders closed
    for another country and at the same time she hoped new generation of
    Turkish society would have another approach to this issue.

    events of 1915 with great sorrow, adding that indeed there is
    awakening in Turkish society; new generation has some questions.

    frames of Armenian-Turkish relations, for example about conditions for
    women in political field. Hermine Naghdalyan noted that her example
    was the best answer.
