Opening of Armenian-Turkish border impossible ‘due to problem between Yerevan and Baku’, Turkish State Minister says

PanARMENIAN.Net - Turkish State Minister Cevdet Yilmaz refuted media reports on opening of the Armenian-Turkish border in the near future.

“The border will not be opened unless the problem between Armenia and Azerbaijan is resolved,” StarGündem newspaper quoted him as saying on a visit to Kars.

At the time he noted that “Ankara wants to live in peace with all neighbors.” “Opening of the border is in our interests but the problem between Yerevan and Baku makes it impossible,” the Turkish State Minister said.
