Armenian official says road map with Turkey only "guideline", not accord

Yerevan, 6 May: A "road map" on normalizing Armenian-Turkish relations
"is a guideline, not a signed agreement", Armenian Deputy Foreign
Minister Karine Ghazinyan said this in Yerevan today, Mediamax
reports.

According to her, the "road map" may be published only after signing a
document following the results of the Armenian-Turkish talks and in
case there is the corresponding decision by the Armenian president.

Ghazinyan stressed that the publications of a number of media,
according to which Armenia has accepted preconditions set forth by
Turkey, do not correspond to real facts. She stressed that
Armenian-Turkish talks are held without any preconditions.
