French presidential office has responded a move by Armenian President
Serge Sargsyan and the parliamentary ruling coalition to suspend the
ratification of the Armenia-Turkey Protocols.
"The French President got familiar with the statement by the President
of the Republic of Armenia, Serge Sargsyan, over the process of
establishing diplomatic relations between Armenia and Turkey and
opening the border," reads the statement.
Further it says that French President Nicolas Sarkozy welcomes
Sargsyan’s decision by which he reaffirms his commitment in favor of
the Armenia-Turkey normalization despite the difficulties the two
sides faced while in the process of ratifying the Protocols signed
on October 10, 2009 in Zurich.
"France is urging on Armenian and Turkish authorities to continue
the dialogue and double the efforts so that to quickly reach the
implementation of the above-mentioned Protocols which will bring a
significant contribution to peace and stability in the region."
