Armenian-Turkish rapprochement is not currently a priority task for Ankara, Kiro Manoyan, ARFD Hay Dat and Political Affairs Office director, told a news conference in Yerevan. "Today, Turkey's priority task is the solution of Kurdish and Cyprus issue. As regards rapprochement with Armenia, Ankara here is more interested in process vs. result," Manoyan said.

Speaker ruled out possibility of Turkey's procrastinating or annulling Protocol ratification. "A majority force in Turkish Parliament is Justice and Development Party. But Turkish Premier Recep Tayyip Erdogan has already announced that parliament may hold a secret ballot. If Armenian parliament also chooses the same method, I am sure the majority will vote against Protocol ratification," said Hay Dat office director.
