All moves of RA President Serzh Sargsyan are based on scientifically
proven and in-depth analysis, whereas foreign policy line is formed
by weighing views and principles of the main political forces. Thus,
policy carried out by the President is invulnerable, Prosperous
Armenia faction secretary Aram Safaryan told journalists.

The politician highly assessed Sargsyan’s visit to Washington and
his speech at the Woodrow Wilson’s Memorial, that welded Diaspora
with its Motherland even more. Safaryan hailed positive Obama’s
efforts into breaking deadlock in Armenia-Turkey relations. MP
welcomed Turkish authorities’ readiness to continue the dialogue
with Armenia, adding that linkage of Armenia-Turkey reconciliation
with Karabakh peace process is unacceptable. "Serzh Sargsyan gave to
understand that he will neither allow for a compromise on Genocide,
nor unilateral concessions in Karabakh issue to reconcile with Turkey,"
Safaryan noted, expressing confidence that the dialogue will go ahead
after April 24 as well. Commenting on the Protocols’ ratification,
he said that if Turkish parliament adopts them without reservations
RA National Assembly will do so as well. "If Turkish MPs voice
reservations, our parliament will behave likewise or simply reject
them," Safaryan explained.

As for Karabakh peace process, Prosperous Armenia member is confident
that as soon as Baku alerts that Azerbaijan is ready to recognize
sovereignty of Nagorno-Karabakh, all other issues will be discussed
at the talks.
