Statement and stance of Turkish Foreign Ministry puts Turkey in
humorous situation and proves that country looks for pretexts to
protract the Protocols’ ratification, ruling Republican Party faction
Secretary Eduard Sharmazanov told NEWS.am. On January 19, Turkish
Foreign Ministry issued a statement criticizing the RA Constitutional
Court judgment on Armenia-Turkey Protocols.

"This statement revealed Turkey’s true colors," Sharmazanov said,
underlining that RA CC did not make any anti-constitutional move.

According to him, CC decision proceeds from the RA Constitution
that says "Armenian people and authorities of Armenia should seek
the international recognition of Armenian Genocide." RA President
Serzh Sargsyan also repeatedly stated this. "CC judgment is a legal
wording of RA President’s position. And the statements by Turkish
Foreign Ministry off-put country’s authorities and "provoke raucous
laughter," the MP concluded.
