Should Turkey attempt to advance Karabakh settlement issue once again,
proposing it as a precondition for Armenian-Turkish rapprochement,
Armenia may suspend the current process between Yerevan and Ankara,
Eurointegration NGO’s chair Karen Bekaryan told a news conference
in Yerevan.
"Armenian side has all grounds to suspend Armenian-Turkish process,
as international community and superpowers have many a time
denied possibility of linking Karabakh issue with Armenian-Turkish
rapprochement," Armenian expert noted. "Now Ankara tries to show
European Union it has made progress in many issues.
If presently there is no progress registered in Cypriot or Kurdish
conflicts, it will be in Armenian-Turkish relations by all means,"
said Karen Bekaryan.
