Turkish delegates in PACE collected 90 signatures under the appeal
to Robert Kocharyan to reply to Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s letter. Vice
Speaker blamed our press for spreading information that PACE called
the Armenian President to answer the letter.

Tigran Torosyan also called the initiative backward, as the request was
made on April 28, while Robert Kocharyan sent his reply letter on April
25. The Vice Speaker noted that the signatories did not pursue any
concrete objective. They just supported the establishment of dialogue.
