Ruben Melqonyan, the vice dean of Faculty of Oriental Studies referred
to the statement made by President Serzh Sargsyan and NA coalition
to suspend Armenian-Turkish ties de jure which have been de facto
frozen by Turkish side.
"Until Armenia hasn’t withdrawn its signature from the protocols, the
possibility to continue the process isn’t aborted," R. Melqonyan said.
The expert ensured the international community can’t accuse Armenian
side in aborting the ties. This has been a very important step made
by the President on the eve of April 24.
Melqonyan said Turkish political community feels lost searching for
any response. But, according to the expert, the answer isn’t going
to be tough.
