The Turkish experts believe Ankara will not ratify the Armenian-Turkish
protocols, until the occupation of the Azerbaijani territories stopped.

The Turkish government – president, prime minister and foreign ministry
– have made it clear that as long as the Azerbaijani territories are
not deoccupied, Turkey will not ratify the Armenian-Turkish protocols,
Turkish International Strategic Studies Center head Celal Cem Oguz
said at the Strategic Studies Center under the Azerbaijani President
in Baku today.

The Armenians themselves "cut down" the process so that the U.S.

Congress will mull the genocide issue under their Diaspora’s influence.

Armenia once again intends to raise the issue of the so-called
"Armenian genocide" in the U.S. Congress.

Turkey did not changed its policy pursued towards Azerbaijan, the
expert said.

The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988
when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian
armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992,
including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts.

Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The
co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group – Russia, France, and the U.S. –
are currently holding the peace negotiations.

Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council’s four
resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh region and the
occupied territories.
