Erdogan’s statements in Baku draw reaction from Yerevan
Official Yerevan opposes Turkey’s interference in the Karabakh issue Published: 15 May, 2009 Article toolsprintable versionemail to friendcomments (4)share the articleOfficial Yerevan has responded to the recent statements made by Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan who again linked Armenian-Turkish normalization with Armenian concessions to Azerbaijan over Nagorno-Karabakh.
“Turkey’s attempts to interfere with the Nagorno-Karabakh settlement process may harm this process,” said Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandyan Thursday, responding to Erdogan’s statements made in while on a visit to Azerbaijan the previous day.
According to the Armenian Foreign Ministry, Nalbandyan defined that “the negotiations on the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh problem proceed through the mediation of the cochairmen of the [OSCE] Minsk Group, on the basis of the Madrid principles and the sides are trying to reduce differences in their positions.”
While in Baku on May 13, Turkish Premier Erdogan said that Turkey will not open its border with Armenia until Armenia withdraws its troops from Nagorno-Karabakh.
President Serzh Sargsyan, who has insisted all along that the rapprochement between Yerevan and Ankara involves no preconditions, also reacted to the statements the same day.
According to the presidential press office, the Armenian leader said the best way for Turkey to assist in the Karabakh peace process would be “abstaining from interfering with it altogether.”
