Yerevan (Yerkir) – The European Union on Tuesday called on Armenia and
Turkey to ratify protocols on bilateral relations without preliminary
conditions.

"The European Union supports the process started between Armenia and
Turkey and calls on the countries to stay true to this process. The
EU urges the countries to ratify and implement the protocols without
preliminary conditions," Spanish Foreign Minister Miguel Angel
Moratinos, whose country now holds the rotating EU presidency, told
a press conference in Yerevan.

Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan in mid-February accused Turkey of
protracting the ratification of the protocols.

Moratinos, who arrived in Armenia on Tuesday as head of an EU
delegation, also said the EU welcomes Sargsyan’s move to submit the
protocols to parliament, as well as Turkish President Abdullah Gul’s
statement on the intention to continue dialogue with Armenia.
