"All those statements that Turkey makes, referring to approval and
passage of Resolution on the 1915 Genocide by Sweden’s Parliament
and the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the United States House of
Representative, that these processes will harm process of normalisation
of Armenia-Turkey relations, is nothing else by a folding screen,"
said Armenia’s Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian, when spoke to the
German Foreign Relations Council.

"Actually, Turkey itself does its best to impose preconditions to
make the process run into difficulties and to put a crimp into the
process of normalisation of relations. By these meanings Turkey is
calling into the question the sense for ‘reasonable time’," he said.

Edward Nalbandian said hopes Turkey will realize the responsibility
for effects of its carried policy and will not betray international
communities’ hopes, a spokesperson for Foreign Ministry of Armenia
quoted Nalbandian as saying.
