/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Recent efforts to normalize relations between Turkey
and neighboring Armenia are a step in the right direction, but the
process has failed to produce any results other than a softening in
the political rhetoric, diplomats and foreign policy analysts have
indicated, a Turkish diplomat said.

"The Armenian side hasn’t taken a step back. There is only a change in
the rhetoric," said retired Ambassador Murat Bilhan. "Armenia should
be aware that this is a give-and-take process, but it does not seem to
be ready to give anything," he said, the Anatolia news agency reported.
