Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan "upon a wish can visit Turkey to
observe the football match of Turkish and Armenian national teams,"
Turkish Ambassador to Azerbaijan Hulusi Kilic said suggesting that
President Sargsyan would better travel by air. "Upon a wish Armenian
President can travel to Turkey by air," he pointed out.

"Around 50 days are left before the football match begins. If
H.E. President of Armenia wishes to observe the match then, welcome,
he can do it," declared Kilic commenting on President Sargsyan’s
statement he will not visit Turkey to observe the match unless Turkey
unblocks Armenian border. Kilic also reminded that President of Turkey
Abdullah Gul arrived in Armenia to observe the Armenia-Turkey match.

The Ambassador commented on the possibilities of opening
Turkey-Armenia border. "If there is progress in Azerbaijan-Armenia
talks on Nagorno-Karabakh, then Turkey-Armenia relations will
also succeed. Progress in the latter is suspended as there is no
advancement in the former. But in the due time there can be a progress
in Turkey-Armenia relations. It is connected to Nagorno-Karabakh,"
asserted Ambassador Kilic.
