/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Prosperous Armenia (PA) supports Armenia-Turkey
Protocols ratification, PA Spokesman Khachik Galstyan told a news
conference in Yerevan. PA believes there are several scenarios of
RA-Turkey relations’ development: "Armenia will be the first to ratify
Protocols, proving its firm intention to normalize relations. The
second scenario would be Armenia’s ratification of protocols after
or simultaneously with Turkey. Another scenario would be refusal to
ratify protocols or their unilateral ratification, which is unlikely,"
Galstyan stated, adding that Turkey would be the one to reap financial
and economic benefits from ratification.

He noted that Armenia’s position in rapprochement process is correct
and justified. "Should Turkey delay ratification process, we’ll
naturally be opposed to the fact. If Turkey persists in linking
Karabakh conflict to rapprochement, PA believes Turkish parliament
should openly announce it. Then, Armenia’s actions will be adequate
to Turkey’s statements," PA Spokesman emphasized.
