Turkish businessman: Hope for Armenian stores in Turkey
Armenian-Turkish two-day business summit kicked off in Yerevan, which hosts more than 50 businessmen from different provinces of Turkey. The participants of the summit have paid tribute to the victims of earthquake that jolted Van.
Noyan Soyak, the founder of Turkish TAPDC Company, said although the Armenian-Turkish border is closed, the trade volume reached $300 million.
The businessman noted when in 1997 the Armenian and Turkish businessmen were trying to resume communication, Georgian businessmen were helping them. The Turkish businessman said once they couldn’t even imagine in there would be Turkish shops in Yerevan, and expressed hope that one day there would be Armenian shops in Turkey either.
