ARMENIAN PRESIDENT CONGRATULATES TURKISH COUNTERPART
EurasiaNet, NY
A EurasiaNet Partner Post from RFE/RL

Robert Kocharian has written to former Turkish Foreign Minister
Abdullah Gul to congratulate him on his election as president,
RFE/RL’s Armenian Service reported.
The text of the message was not made public. Armenian Foreign Minister
Vartan Oskanian, who has met on several occasions in recent years
with Gul, sent a similar message.
Analysts in Yerevan do not anticipate any fundamental change in Turkish
foreign policy as a result of Gul’s election since, as Giro Manoyan
of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation-Dashnaktsutiun pointed out,
foreign policy is the prerogative of Turkey’s government, not of
the president.
