Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said that Turkey wants to
open its borders with Armenia and gain full integration with its
neighbors. "But it would not be sufficient to open Turkey-Armenia
border. We also want the Armenian-Azerbaijani border to be opened for
regional stability," said Davutoglu during Turkish Foreign Policy in
Changing World conference at Oxford University.

According to him, Turkey wants peace and security in the Middle East,
Caucasus and Balkans. "Why do we so active regarding Iran’s nuclear
program? It is not because we defend Iran, but we want a safe region.
We don’t want Iran to have nuclear weapons and we don’t want any
military tension in the region," the Foreign Minister said, adding
that the problems should be solved through a political dialogue and
diplomacy.
