/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenia and Cyprus pursue their foreign policy
leaning on the principles of international law and values of the
European Union, said the President of the House of Representatives
of Cyprus.

"Both states want peace and stability. Like Armenia, Cyprus is
willing to establish relations with Turkey," Marios Garoyan told a
news conference in Yerevan today.

"During meetings with Armenian high-ranking officials, we discussed
possibility to normalize the Armenian-Turkish relations and to resolve
the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. Our positions coincide in all points,"
he said.

"Aspired for the European Union, Turkey continues its denial of the
Armenian Genocide and the occupation of Cyprus. This country has
failed to meet commitments essential to be assessed to the EU. We
insist that Turkey changes its policy toward Armenia and Cyprus and
establishes diplomatic relations with them," Marios Garoyan said.
