All foreign policy initiatives taken by Armenia in 2010, specifically ratification of Protocols on normalization of relations with Turkey, have failed, according to former Foreign Minister of Armenia.

“I stand for normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations,” Alexander Arzumanyan told journalists on January 17. “However, all ill-considered documents designed abroad are doomed to failure.”

“I think that the political bluff named football diplomacy is over,” he said.
