/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkey’s ruling AKP has failed to succeed in
the issues of Cyprus and Armenia, although it has made significant
progress in foreign policy during recent years, an official from the
party said Monday.

Turkey has revived its relations with Iran, Iraq, Syria and Russia in
last 6-7 years and made progress on many issues, Suat Kiniklioglu,
deputy chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Turkish
Parliament, said at Chatham House, London.

"But we failed on two issues. We are not at the point, which we wanted
to be, on the issues of Armenia and Cyprus," he said.

Kiniklioglu said the ongoing negotiation process in Cyprus was the last
chance to achieve peace in the island, Hurriyet Daily News reports.
