Turkey Must Take the Next Step in Protocols Ratification Process: Armenian MP

Turkey must display specific approaches to ratifying the Armenian-Turkish Protocols in order to avoid possible future complications, said Republican Party of Armenia MP Artak Zakaryan at a press conference today.

Independent deputy Koryun Nahapetyan also expressed hope that H.Res.252 on the Armenian Genocide approved by the US House Foreign Affairs Committee won’t hinder the development of Armenian-Turkish relations.

“Turkey won’t accept that as grounds for not completing the process begun in the last one to one-and-a-half years,” he said.

According to the parliamentarian, Armenia has already taken steps in this issue; it’s now Turkey’s turn to take the next step.
