/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The EU hasn’t assessed Turkey’s potential for
resolution of conflicts in the Caucasus yet, an EU envoy said.
"The European Union welcomes Turkey’s initiative for resolution of the
Nagorno Karabakh conflict. Mr Gul’s visit to Yerevan is a historical
gesture that will have a future," EU Special Representative for the
South Caucasus, Peter Semneby said.
Turkey’s President Abdullah Gul was in Yerevan on Sept. 6 to watch
a qualifier between the Armenian and Turkish soccer teams.
Later he announced intention to mediate tensions between the Armenian
and Azerbaijani Presidents, claiming that the OSCE Minsk Group failed
to produce effect during 17 years.
