/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Turkish government responded negatively
once again to a demand from the United States to open the Armenian
border. During his visit to Turkey U.S. Assistant Secretary of State
for the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs Daniel Fried urged
the Turkish government to reevaluate the Armenian border. Ankara,
however, acted unenthusiastically to the issue at hand. Turkish
officials classified the “Armenian cessation of its invasion of the
Karabakh region” as one of the three requirements for the appeasement
of relations between Turkey and Armenia. Turkey is also pushing Armenia
to “disavow its allegations of the Armenian Genocide and to remove from
the Armenian constitution the anti-Turkish clauses,” reported Zaman.
