Turkey’s PM Rejep Tayip Erdogan referred to internal and foreign
policy key issues in a televised show, Cumhuriyet reported.
According to the source Erdogan referred to Armenian-Turkish
normalization processes and said: "Mr. Obama and his administration are
aware of our disposition towards the normalization of Armenian-Turkish
ties. Underscoring regional peace, we’ve stated that conflict between
Armenia and Azerbaijan should be settled with other regional issues."
Hurriyet cited Erdogan as saying: "We’ve closed the border with
Armenia, after Azerbaijani lands were occupied. We should stop it,
in order Turkey opens the border. Until the occupied lands remain
invaded we can’t do it."
