The United States is hopeful that Armenia and Turkey will continue
the normalization further, and that it is up to Yerevan and Ankara
to end their differences, US Ambassador to Turkey James Jeffrey was
quoted by Turkish HaberTurk agency as saying.

It comes hours after the Armenian President issued a decree suspending
the ratification of the Armenia-Turkey Protocols following his
televised address to Armenians across the world.

Earlier on the same day of April 22 the Armenian parliamentary ruling
coalition issued a statement proposing to remove the ratification
issue from parliament’s agenda.
