"It’s difficult to meet the challenges in Armenian-Turkish relations
unless the conflict of Nagorno Karabakh remains unsolved," the
Prime Minister of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced. "We hope
that the UN Security Council will give its assessment regarding the
conflict. Turkey makes efforts and has taken the initiative to create
Caucasus Platform of Peace and Stability. The opposition’s versions
regarding the opening of the border are exaggerated," said the Prime
Minister. The President of Turkey Abdullah Gul said in his interview
given to British Financial Times magazine that the most important
thing in Caucasus is the relations between Armenia and Azerbaijan over
the Nagorno Karabakh conflict. But the President has not rejected the
Armenian-Turkish relations could be normalized leaving the issue of
NKR conflict out.
