During his trip to Kars, Turkish Health Minister Recep Akdag touched
upon the opening of the Armenian-Turkish border.

The Minister stated that official Yerevan `takes no steps to open the
border and normalize bilateral relations’.

Recep Akdag said that the border can be open in case Armenia liberates
`occupied Azerbaijani territories’.

`You know, Armenia is to blame for the closed Armenian-Turkish
border,’ he told the journalists.

The citizens of Kars, except for Azerbaijanis, stand for the border
opening without preconditions.
