Representative of the ARF Dashnaktsutyun Supreme Body, Chairman of
the RA NA Standing Committee on Foreign Relations Armen Rustamyan said
that Armenia should get rid of the Protocols on the Armenian-Turkish
normalization as soon as possible.

Suspension of the Protocols ratification process does not mean that
Armenia has rejected them, Rustamyan told a conference of Hay Dat
Committees.

"These Protocols are a threat for us but an advantage for Turkey,
as Ankara needs the process but not a result," the MP said.

Referring to the Armenian Cause (Hay Dat), Rustamyan noted that this
package contains all the steps for the Armenian Genocide worldwide
recognition, compensation of losses and restoration of the Armenian
nation’s historical rights.

He also stressed that the Armenian authorities failed to separate the
Armenian-Turkish normalization from the Karabakh conflict settlement.
