`Turkey’s assertion as if the decision of the Armenian Constitutional
Court contains preconditions and does not comply with the
Armenian-Turkish protocols or the claims over Armenia having made some
amendments to the protocols are incongruous,’ Armenian Foreign
Minister Edward Nalbandian told a press conference today. He
reaffirmed that Turkey’s statements have nothing to do with the
reality.

The statements are received sceptically not only by the international
public but inside Turkey as well.

Minister highlighted that Armenia follows the letter and spirit of the
protocols, and once again noted that talks should hold no
preconditions.

E. Nalbandian voiced hope that Turkey will act the same way and the
ratification process will go without preconditions or delays.

The process has been frozen in Turkey since October last year, while
Armenia acts in accordance with the schedule, FM said.

E. Nalbandian noted that the international community will not accept
it once Turkey makes an attempt to fail the negotiations and lay the
burden on Armenia.
