Turkey doesn't seek normalization of relations with Armenia

PanARMENIAN.Net - Turkey doesn't seek normalization of relations with Armenia. It remains Azerbaijan's ally in the Karabakh issue, Armenian Foreign Minister Vartan Oskanian told a news conference in Yerevan.



"During a meeting with Turkish FM Abdullah Gul, Armenia confirmed readiness to normalize relations without preconditions. However, Ankara receives information from Baku, and this preconceived information impedes our dialogue. I am hopeful that after the meeting Mr Gul formed a more correct opinion of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict and Armenia's stance in the region," the RA FM siad.



Mr Oskanian has also held an out of record meeting with leaders of world media in Istanbul. "They are badly informed of the Karabakh issue and the Armenia-Turkey relations in general. I had a speech in the air of CNN-Turk and I took the opportunity to familiarize the Turkish public with the issues," Mr Oskanian said.
