So as to become a member of the EU Turkey must fulfill its commitments
and achieve economical, political, regional and social progress. The
regional policy of Turkey is promoting difficulties and tension in
South Caucasus and harms affects hampers the progress in the Republic
of Armenia. This statement was made by head of the Armenia Support
Group, Congressman Joe Knollenberg at the Representatives’ Chamber
of the US Parliament. The Armenian Assembly of America reports that
the 13 yearlong blockade of a European Council member-state is an
intolerable fact. Therefore, before becoming an EU member, Turkey
must accept its faults and respect its neighbors, particularly Armenia.
