"The Armenian – Turkish boarder should be open. There shouldn’t
be any closed boarders in the civilized world", – RA ex-foreign
Minister, representative of the ANC Alexander Arzumanyan said today
and mentioned that the important question is which is the price for
opening the boarders.
The speaker thinks that by the protocols of August 31 there are
some preconditions for the Armenians for opening the Armenian –
Turkish boarder.
"The boarder is not closed by Armenia. In those protocols is written
that the sides agreed to open the boarders but Armenia hasn’t closed
any boarder with anyone. The Republic of Turkey has made up a decision
to blockade Armenia, and has closed the boarders unilaterally", –
mentioned A. Arzumanyan underlining that in 1993 closing the Armenian –
Turkish boarder, then also the way through the air Turkey has realized
a hostile activity against Armenia.
"This action should be abolished, after which only can be signed the
protocols about the bilateral relations", -thinks the speaker. The
ex-foreign minister mentioned that Armenia has protocols of bilateral
relations with many countries many of which consist of half page only
and have been ratified or signed by an ambassador or a consul.
