Ahmet Davutoglu If Armenia does not disavow the nonconstructive
position, the continuation of the normalization process will be
impossible, Turkish FM told.
Yerevan does not demonstrate good intentions in the process of the
Armenian-Turkish rapprochement envisioned by the protocols signed
between the countries, Turkish FM Ahmet Davutoglu said.
"Yerevan does not demonstrate good intentions in the Turkish-Armenian
protocols", Davutoglu told Tuesday.
According to him, during the meeting with the Armenian counterpart
in London, he also voiced concern with the changes introduced by the
Armenian Constitutional Court to the Ankara-Yerevan protocols.
"The decision adopted by the Armenian Constitutional Court due to
the protocols is nonconstructive and after the changes the relations
between the two countries went back to the previous level", he said.
According to Davutoglu, if Armenia does not disavow the nonconstructive
position, the continuation of the normalization process will be
impossible.
As for the plans of the chairman of External Ties Commission, Howard
Berman, to raise the issue of the mythical "armenian genocide" for
discussion in the US State Congress on March 4, Davutoglu said thus
Armenia is hampering the process of normalization of ties.
