/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The ongoing Armenian-Turkish dialogue hampers
resolution of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict, according to Ruben
Hakobyan, director of analytic research center.

"Turkey has numerously stated that it closed the border with Armenia
because of Karabakh and that the border will be re-opened only in case
the conflict is settled. A question arises: if Armenia is ready to
resolve the conflict and accept Madrid principles, so why does it need
normalization of relations with Turkey?" Hakobyan said, adding that
engaging in a dialogue with Turkey, Armenia got under a disadvantage.

"If the Karabakh conflict is resolved, the Armenian-Turkish border
will open of its own accord," he concluded.
