Before embarking on “Armenian-Turkish dalliance”, Armenian authorities should have realized the necessity of certain time, resources as well as national consensus in rapprochement process with Turkey, LPA chairman Hovhannes Hovhannesyan stated.

“We should have mobilized our resources before entering upon a diplomatic process of such scale. Having no support in Armenia, President Sargsyan meant to secure his legitimacy through foreign policy,” LPA chairman noted.

Commenting on April 23 presidential address on Armenia-Turkey process suspension, he characterized it as domestic targeted. “Actually, Protocols are still on RA NA foreign affairs committee agenda. No legal changes occurred, as a matter of fact” Hovhannesyan stated, noting that superpowers will not allow Armenia to withdraw from Protocols.
