Turkish government will send the protocols Turkey signed with Armenia
to the parliament (Majlis) next week, Turkish government spokesman
said on Monday.

Turkish State Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Cemil Cicek, also the
government spokesman, said that the government would send the protocols
signed with Armenia to normalize relations, to the parliament in the
following week.

"Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu will inform the parliament regarding
the protocols on October 21," Cicek told reporters after the cabinet
meeting in the Turkish capital of Ankara.

Cicek also said that Turkey had fraternal relations with Azerbaijan,
not a relationship based on interests.

friendship," Cicek said, according to a Turkish news agency.
