/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian will
meet with his Turkish counterpart Ali Babacan on November 24, on the
initiative of the Turkish MFA.
`The Ministers will focus on possibilities to normalize the
Armenian-Turkish relations. By saying normalization, we mean
establishment of diplomatic relations and opening of borders without
preconditions,’ RA MFA media relations division head Tigran Balayan
told PanARMENIAN.Net.
Minister Nalbandian will be in Istanbul to attend a meeting of the
BSEC Secretariat.
Turkey broke off diplomatic relations and closed the border with
Armenia in 1993 over the conflict in Nagorno Karabakh.
