To advance the normalization of Armenian-Turkish ties Armenian side
currently waits for Ankara’s commitment, Armenian FM Edward Nalbandyan
declared at "Real politics" televised program by Public TV.
Regarding President Sargsyan’s address "Our political objective of
normalizing relations between Armenia and Turkey remains valid, and
we shall consider moving forward when we are convinced that there is a
proper environment in Turkey and there is leadership in Ankara ready to
reengage in the normalization process" and answering to the question if
Armenia waits for the elections in Turkey, Edward Nalbandyan answered:
"Elections are Turkey’s internal affairs. We’ve declared we’ll advance
if we see partners in Turkey, who are ready to walk forward without
preconditions, to normalize ties, and to commit the agreements.
Whether they’ll be new or old partners it’s Turkey to decide."
"The recent period was like turning a sand watch and by the falling
of every sand both the international community and we were losing
trust towards Turkey. If trustworthy steps are done by Turkey we’ll
act correspondingly," Armenian FM stated.
