Turkey’s EU admission is beneficial to Armenia, Galust Saakyan,
chairman of the Republican Party parliamentary faction, said in
Yerevan today.

Speaking at the National Press Club, Saakyan said that if Turkey
joined the EU, Armenia would border the EU directly.

”Turkey’s EU admission can contribute to the opening of the border
with Armenia,” Saakyan said. He added that the European community was
determined to succeed in opening the Turkish-Armenian border, and “if
not today, it will be opened tomorrow”.
