Armenia
The "Heritage" Party posted a statement which expresses their
dissatisfaction on signing Armenian-Turkish diplomatic and bilateral
ties.
According to them the Protocols on Armenian-Turkish relations
threaten the national interests of Armenia, endanger the process of
international recognizing of the Armenian Genocide, as well as the
settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. The "Heritage" Party
demands to hold a referendum before the final signing of Protocols
and their ratification during the next six weeks. The Referendum will
also raise the question whether there is a confidence in President
of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan, – statement says.
"Heritage" also initiates the signatures collection in favor of holding
a Referendum and arrangement for consultations and cooperation with
various parties and political forces of the country to search methods
and possibilities to change the options previously signed protocols.
"If it is impossible to make changes in previously signed Protocols the
"Heritage" will act individually and collectively to stop and break
processes that threaten the interests of Armenia" – said in statement.
August, 31, Armenia and Turkey have agreed to start internal
consultations on signing diplomatic and bilateral ties. The
consultations will be hold on two documents – the "Protocol on the
diplomatic relations establishment between the two countries" and the
"Protocol on the development of bilateral relations" during six weeks.
