The Armenian-Turkish reconciliation process, suspended by official
Yerevan, will be resumed after 2011 parliamentary elections in Turkey,
Political Developments Research Center NGO chairman Vahan Dilanyan
stated.

As he told a news conference in Yerevan, currently Turkey’s ruling
AKP party lacks political will to ratify the Protocols. At the same
time, Mr. Dilanyan didn’t preclude the possibility of Armenia-Turkey
negotiations being continued at ministerial level. According to him,
Armenian-Turkish dialogue is one of the exceptional processes where
superpowers’ interests basically meet.

"On the background of political negotiations suspension, the dialogue
between Armenian and Turkish societies should be activated," Mr.
Dilanyan emphasized.
