ArmInfo. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Armenia has refuted once
again the information that the Nagorno-Karabakh problem is being
discussed during the Armenian-Turkish rapprochement talks.
Such a statement has been made by the US co-chair of the OSCE Minsk
Group Matthew Bryza. Bakililar.az reports that in an interview to
ATB Bryza said that, on the instruction of President Obama, after his
visit to the region he was to go to Turkey to discuss Turkish-Armenian
relations and the Nagorno-Karabakh peace process. He did not specify
what exactly he was going to discuss with the Turkish leadership.
"The President and the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Armenia have
repeatedly said that the Nagorno-Karabakh problem is not on the agenda
of the negotiations for normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations,"
the head of the Mass Media Department of the Press Service of the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Armenia Tigran Balayan said when asked
by ArmInfo to comment on Bryza’s statement.
