Armenian-Turkish relations require a comprehensive approach, Turkey’s Foreign Minister said.

As Ahmet Davutoğlu told a joint press conference with U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, OSCE Minsk Group activity and preservation of balance in the Caucasus were discussed during Kerry’s visit to Turkey.

Kerry, in turn, expressed his country’s readiness to intensify talks with Ankara on regional issues and support the conflict resolution.

U.S. Secretary of State arrived in Istanbul on April 7, with restoration of Israeli-Turkish ties and Syrian conflict on the agenda.
