/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan said it would be
better to form diplomatic relations between Turkey and Armenia prior
to the establishment of any commission, Milliyet Daily reported.

"I generally said that I was not against the establishment of
commissions between the two countries… First, let our joint border
be opened and diplomatic relations constituted, then we can establish
commissions, sub-commissions and sub-sub-commissions for any issue,"
the daily quoted Sargsyan as saying.

"In fact, if you remember a similar commission to this was formed in
the past with the efforts of the United States and this commission
concluded genocide had taken place. What happened then? Has something
changed? Did anybody accept it? No. Nobody accepted," he said.

Sargsyan also denied that they were making territorial demands
from Turkey.

"I am surprised by the territorial demand claim. I do not know but
it is a common opinion. But have you ever heard an Armenian official
saying, "We are demanding territory from Turkey." In no way has such
a statement ever been made," he said.
