"Armenia should declare about the withdrawal from the process of
possible normalization of the Armenian-Turkish relations as soon as
possible, otherwise our country will not find itself in a beneficial
situation," Head of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (ARF)
Bureau’s Hay Dat and Political Affairs Office Kiro Manoyan told a
press conference today.

Kiro Manoyan said President Sargsyan’s speech at the Chatham House was
strange to him. "In his speech in the Chatham House President Sargsyan
did not say what he had to say. First of all it was necessary to
mention concrete terms. Otherwise, Turkey may try to further protract
the ratification until April 24," he said.

"There could be no better protocols for Turkey, but the issue of
the terms is worrisome. Turkey wants to see progress in the Karabakh
issue till March-April, but it will not happen," Kiro Manoyan said.

The protocols have become a lever of settlement of the Karabakh issue
in Turkey’s hands. However, Azerbaijan resembles an offended child,
who bears dangerous ideas in mind. Azerbaijan may launch war, if it
sees Turkey has left it.
