Ankara’s reasons for non-ratification of Protocols won’t be taken normally

Armenia-Turkey rapprochement started as an open process and must be completed in the same manner, lest it should remind a farce, OSCE PA Special Representative on Nagorno-Karabakh and Georgia, President Emeritus Goran Lennmarker said.

At 73rd NATO PA Rose-Roth seminar in Yerevan, Goran Lennmarker urged Armenia and Turkey to expedite Protocols ratification. “We understand there are many impediments on the way to ratification, but the process is still very important. I’ve repeatedly told the Turkish side that one can always find reasons for non- ratification, still they won’t be taken normally,” Goran Lennmarker stressed.
