16:46 / 09/16/2009Chairman of the Board of Analytical Center on
Globalization and Regional Cooperation (ACGRC) Stepan Grigoryan
considers it absurd that a number of experts raise the issues, like
the presence of territorial integrity and absence of self-determination
in Armenian-Turkish Protocols.

"Which nation is determined on the territory of Armenia or
Turkey? Adducing such arguments is pointless. We do not undertake
something beyond us by signing the Protocols", he outlined.

The expert is confident, although the Protocols do not mention Karabakh
issue, Turkey will try to progress on Karabakh conflict settlement.

"Once the Turkish side exerts pressure on Armenia to activate Artsakh
conflict settlement, Armenians should freeze the rapprochement
process", Grigoryan concluded.
