Turkey will not ratify the Armenia-Turkey Protocols until April 24
or it will ratify them with reservations, leader of People’s Party,
Tigran Karapetyan, said at a press conference Saturday.

"Turkey is not ratifying [the Protocols] because it wants to connect
the issue with the Artsakh [Nagorno-Karabakh] conflict. Turkey
wants Azerbaijan to be content with [the process], and that is
impossible until the Artsakh conflict is included in the process,"
said Karapetyan.

According to him, Armenia should rely upon its own abilities not on
guarantees given by other countries.

"If we want to have achievements, please, let’s have them, but let’s
not have losses. In terms of politics, any step can be a loss. We
must avoid it," said Karapetyan.

In his words, the opening of borders is beneficial for Russia. It is
also beneficial for Russia that Azerbaijan remains discontent with
the process which will bring Azerbaijan closer to Russia. Instead,
the opening of the Armenian-Turkish border is not beneficial for
Armenia as "one day Turkey will ask to remove the border guard,
and today Turkey’s army is so much sophisticated and powerful that
it can conquer Armenia within 6 hours."

In Karapetyan’s opinion, Armenia can fight a war against Azerbaijan,
but not against Turkey. The party leader also stated that in Sargsyan’s
London speech, there was a resoluteness that Armenia is not preparing
to give up Artsakh.

"In terms of patriotism, this is very positive. And as for the rest,
what will happen and those policies that are being conducted in secret,
concerns us," said he.
