Ankara freezes negotiations with Armenia, but Yerevan not react
ARF Dashnaktsutyun has repeatedly stated that Turkey has suspended talks on normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations and Armenia should inform the international community, Giro Manoyan , head of the Central office of Hay Dat in Political Affairs told journalists in Yerevan today.

According to him, "Ankara creates an impression that negotiations with Yerevan continue. But in fact, the process is frozen. We do not react to it and allow world's actors to continue exerting pressure on Armenia and demanding from us concessions," Giro Manoyan said.

As an example of such pressure Giro Manoyan called the upcoming visit of the of the OSCE Minsk Group to the region in fall, which, according to him, is intended to compel Yerevan and Baku to adopt the updated Madrid principles.
