/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Obstacles to the development of the Turkish-Armenian
relations are posed by problems in the history of our peoples on
one hand, and by the conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia and
territorial claims on the other hand," Turkish Foreign Minister Ali
Babacan said.
"In this situation, Turkish diplomacy seeks to find ways of dialogue
with Armenia," he said.
"Recently participating at the General Assembly in New York, I met
with the Foreign Minister of Armenia, Vartan Oskanian and I told him
that we are neighbors and we need to exist in the way of dialogue
and cooperation. We have historical problems, but we should try to
regulate our problems in a peaceful and civilized manner and should
face the future," he said, Trend news agency reports.
