Nikol Pashinyan
There is a great opportunity to normalize relations with Turkey – Pashinyan
Baku/18.04.23/Turan: On Tuesday, speaking in the Armenian parliament, the Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said that there is a great opportunity for normalization of relations between Armenia and Turkey.
"There is a great opportunity to establish normal relations between our countries. And this opportunity increased when we decided to respond to the catastrophic earthquake that occurred in Turkey at the beginning of the year," he said.
During the visit of Foreign Minister Mirzoyan to Ankara, this optimism has increased even more. "I hope that in the near future the Armenian-Turkish border will really open and create a basis for the development of normal good-neighborly relations," Pashinyan said. ---02D---
