Turkish President Abdullah Gul said yesterday that his landmark trip
to Armenia had been productive and gave him hope for the future of the
two neighbours with a long history of animosity. "I believe that my
visit was fruitful and that it promises hope for the future," Mr. Gul
said upon arrival from Yerevan, where he met his Armenian counterpart,
Serzh Sarkisian. Mr. Gul said he had a "constructive and sincere"
meeting with Mr. Sarkisian during which he won Yerevan’s support for a
new regional grouping in the Caucasus proposed by Ankara after the
outbreak of last month’s conflict between Georgia and Russia.
