YEREVAN, MAY 3, ARMENPRESS. The US State Department has expressed its concern regarding Turkey's decision to suspend the flight permit for Armenian airlines, ARMENPRESS reports, the US Department of State told Public TV News.
“The United States strongly supports Armenia-Türkiye normalization, which would be good for the entire region. We noted with disappointment Türkiye’s announcement that it would suspend Armenian airlines’ overflight permissions. The agreements previously reached between them to resume air connections have been important confidence building measures. It is our sincere hope that Turkey and Armenia can continue to rebuild economic ties and open transportation links”, the US Department of State said.
