Armenian Choice party protests recognition of Turkey's borders by Armenia
The dividing line between the Eastern and Western Armenia can't be considered the Armenian-Turkish border, according to Armen Aghayan, member of Armenian Choice party's initiative group.

He said he doesn't mind establishment of checkpoints at the border but recognition of Turkey's hegemony over the historic Armenian lands is unacceptable.

"Armenia should only demand lifting of the blockade imposed by Turkey," Aghayan told reporters today.

"The process of normalization of the Armenian-Turkish relations will be suspended if no progress is fixed in Karabakh talks. Although the problem is not mentioned in the Protocols, it is being discussed. This becomes evident judging by Azerbaijani high ranking officials' statements," he said.
