/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Poland may become a mediator in improving the
Armenian-Turkish relations, however bilateral agreement of the parties
is necessary to that end, Polish Senate Marshal Bogdan Borusewicz
stated November 7. In his words, Polish leadership offered it to
Turkey and there are positive responses from the Armenian party
over the matter. "Turkey and Armenia have mutual interests and there
is a need to present these now," the Marshal noted. Remarking that
Poland supports Turkey in EU accession, Borusewicz underscored that
Turkey’s accession to the EU issues also from interests of Armenia. In
his turn Armenian Speaker Tigran Torosyan also noted that Turkey’s
accession to the EU is in line with Armenia’s interests, as if it is
the case the Turkish party assumes the obligation to follow democratic
principles. Moreover, Torosyan added, it is hard to imagine Turkey
joining the EU having closed borders with a friendly country to the
EU, reports IA Regnum.
