As neighbor states, Armenia and Turkey should work for normalization of relations. However, it will be possible only if Turkey acknowledges the Armenian Genocide, ARF Dashnaktsutyun said in a statement.

"Lifting of the blockade and establishment of diplomatic relations without preconditions will be a first step in this direction. The RA President's initiative is be followed by moves from the Turkish side, which would not be merely propagandistic. Turkey should stop imposing conditions and deepening dividing lines in the South Caucasus," the statement said.
