Armenia-Turkey
"TURKEY HAS TWO PRECONDITIONS FOR ARMENIA"
Hulusi Kilic, the Ambassador of Turkey in Azerbaijan
stated, "As there has been no progress in the peace
process on Karabakh, it is untimely to speak about
cooperation between the two states". He stressed that
Turkey will establish diplomatic relations with
Armenia only after Armenia insures the settlement of
the Karabakh conflict and gives up efforts to achieve
worldwide recognition of the Armenian Genocide.
According to the bulletin of Armenian Research Center
of Ankara, reported by AzeriPress news agency, the
statement was made on the day of the meeting of the
Armenian and Azeri Foreign Ministers in Strasbourg.
