/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkey can and must facilitate peaceful resolution
of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, International Crisis Group Caucasus
Project Director said.

"This country is interested in stability in the Caucasus. Contribution
to the peace process will strengthen Ankara’s position in the region
and help its EU bid," Lawrence Sheets said.

"The possible opening of the border with Armenia and resumption of
trade relations between the two states can push Yerevan to search
for new ways to resolve the Karabakh conflict. With such perspective,
Azerbaijan should not be too emotional about possible Armenian-Turkish
reconciliation. Instead, Baku should support the Turkish policy
vis-a-vis Armenia," he said, Day.az reports.
