Armenian-Turkish ties will by no way have influence on the settlement
of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, expert Ruben Melqonyan said at news
conference. The simplest reason to it is that Turkey is not OSCE Minsk
group member. "O would not like to link Armenian-Turkish ties with
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. Turkey has not any place or influence on
that group," expert said.

Regarding President Serzh Sargsyan’s travel to Turkey in October,
expert said that at joint press conference with Serbian President
Serzh Sargsyan "has sent serious messages" to the Turkish side.

According to Melqonyan, the President has just reminded Turkish side
about their agreements. "If we consider the agreements uncompleted
then the visit would be unpurposeful." He said.
