ArmInfo. The process of negotiations on Nagorno Karabakh should not
be linked to the process of normalization of the Armenian-Turkish
relations, French Ambassador to Armenia Serge Smessow told ArmInfo.

According to him, these processes are different, and now the ball is
on Turkey’s side. He said they hope that a goodwill gesture will allow
to ratify the Protocols in both Turkey and Armenia. The ambassador
added that it is still early to show optimism, however, he said,
the fact that the Constitutional Court approved these Protocols, is
a step forward. S. Smessow said that the Protocol adoption procedure
is simpler in Turkey. He expressed hope that the notorious political
nuances will be overcome by Turkey. According to the ambassador,
they hope that Turkey will be able to overcome these obstacles and
will advance in the process of ratification of the Armenian-Turkish
Protocols.
