YEREVAN May 6
There is no link between measures to sort out relations between
Armenia and Turkey and the settlement of the Nagorno-Karabakh
conflict, Armenian presidential press secretary Samvel Farmanyan told
the local Mediamax news agency.
"We have repeatedly stated that the problem of Karabakh conflict
settlement efforts has not been addressed as part of the
Armenian-Turkish negotiating process at any level," Farmanyan said on
Wednesday.
The president’s press secretary also ruled out a possible trilateral
meeting of the presidents of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Turkey in Prague.
"A trilateral meeting of the presidents of Armenia, Azerbaijan and
Turkey has not been arranged. Naturally, it will not take place.
Moreover, such a possibility is ruled out," he said, referring to
certain foreign media reports.
