/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "I am against ratification of Armenian-Turkish
Protocols since they do not clearly state further developments,
while it will be very difficult for Armenia to neutralize possible
negative consequences," Democratic Party Leader Aram Sargsyan told
a news conference in Yerevan.

At that he noted that Turkey is now more than ever interested in
ratification of Protocols since they enshrine three main principles
which are of interest to Turkish side: mutual recognition of borders,
normalization of ties with bilateral obligations and possible obstacles
towards international recognition of Genocide.

Mr. Sargsyan also proposed that Armenian parliament adopt memorandum
to Protocols, introducing Armenian side’s reservation to issues that
may be subject to speculation.
