/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The issue of opening the Armenian-Turkish border
is outside NATO’s competence, it is up to them to decide, Deputy
Secretary-General of NATO Jean Fournet told in the interview to
PanARMENIAN.Net. "Of course we are for opening the borders, but
we think that we should not interfere into the relations of two
countries. The Alliance only welcomes steps aimed at cooperation and
dialog in the region, as well as providing security for the states
of the Southern Caucasus," Fournet stressed.
