Edward Nalbandian: Turkey deliberately attempts to link Armenia-Turkey normalization to Karabakh issue
Acting Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian has commented on recent statements of senior Turkish officials that the Armenia-Turkey normalization is directly linked to the Karabakh issue.
“The international community repeatedly voiced the position that Armenia and Turkey should normalize relations without preconditions, and the mentioned position coincides with the position of Yerevan. Any attempt to link the Armenia-Turkey normalization to the Karabakh issue can harm the process. There is an impression that Turkey deliberately attempts to link the two processes. This hinders the efforts of the international community and Armenia,” the acting Armenian FM told reporters on Wednesday.
