The leader of the parliamentary faction of the opposition party ARF
Vahan Hovhannisyan stated in Yerevan today that "the Turks have
a policy to split the unity of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh, the
homeland and the Diaspora, as well as within the diaspora."

According to him, the Armenian-Turkish protocols aimed at easing
the Armenian position, and the only way out of this situation is the
tip of Armenia under the signature of these documents. "Minutes can
have terrible consequences for us, especially in the context of the
arrogant behavior of the Turkish authorities, continues to lay down
preconditions for opening the border with Armenia," Hovhannisyan said.

In this context, he said, unilateral ratification of the Protocol,
Armenia does not lead to any results.

ARF representative expressed regret that the Armenian authorities
did not take adequate action in response to the steps of Turkey. "I
did not understand when sober end dates for the ratification of the
protocols," he admitted. According to Hovhannisyan, the actions of
the Armenian authorities often do not agree with their words, and
should give certainty and clarity.

Vahan Hovhannisyan said that no positive expectations from
the scheduled tomorrow working visit to Moscow by President of
Armenia Serzh Sargsyan. He expressed confidence that Russia in the
Armenian-Turkish relations is not acting on the side of Armenia.
