Turkish FM Ahmet Davutoglu assessed the signing of Russian-Turkish
deal on visa regime suspending as an "important step of revolutionary
significance."
Talking live to Haberturk TV Station Davutoglu voiced several issues
from Ankara’s agenda. He reminded that 4 high ranking meetings have
been conducted between Russia and Turkey within a year.
"Those ties aren’t hostile. Those are expressions aimed to cooperation
and integration of our economies," Davutoglu said.
Turkish FM has also spoke about Armenian-Turkish ties. He said Turkey
is to face number of difficulties in that process. The most important,
according to Davutoglu, is to persist those difficulties and not accept
pessimistic ideology. The decisive continuation of normalization policy
and appropriate terms to rule that forward are of great significance.
"As you know that process reached a certain advancement. To turn
that back isn’t beneficial of either side, neither for Turkey, nor
for Armenia and Azerbaijan," Turkish FM said.
Davutoglu stated that the normalization of Armenian-Turkish ties would
advance, underscoring Turkish wish to make a "scientific revolution"
in Balkans and Caucasus region.
