Work on Yerevan’s unconditional acceptance of the Turkish-Armenian
protocols is underway, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said
during a speech at King’s College, the Haber Turk news agency reported.
Turkish and Armenian foreign ministers Ahmet Davutoglu and Edward
Nalbandian signed the Ankara-Yerevan protocols in Zurich Oct. 10.
Diplomatic relations between Armenia and Turkey have been broken due
to Armenia’s claims of an alleged genocide, and its occupation of
Azerbaijani lands. The border between them has been broken since 1993.
Ankara wants free vehicle movement from Baku through Karabakh,
Yerevan and Nakhchivan to Kars, he added.
