Opening of only Armenian-Turkish border is not sufficient for Turkey

PanARMENIAN.Net - Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said that Turkey wants to open its borders with Armenia and gain full integration with its neighbors. "But it would not be sufficient to open Turkey-Armenia border. We also want the Armenian-Azerbaijani border to be opened for regional stability," said Davutoglu during Turkish Foreign Policy in Changing World conference at Oxford University.

According to him, Turkey wants peace and security in the Middle East, Caucasus and Balkans. "Why do we so active regarding Iran's nuclear program? It is not because we defend Iran, but we want a safe region. We don't want Iran to have nuclear weapons and we don't want any military tension in the region," the Foreign Minister said, adding that the problems should be solved through a political dialogue and diplomacy.
