During a CNN Turk program, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu, in the process of normalizing Armenia-Turkey relations, expressed willingness to initiate contacts also with representatives of the Armenian Diaspora, reports Turkish daily Milliyet.

“It is not only with Armenia that we want to normalize our relations. We want to tinitiate contacts also with Armenians living in the Diaspora. At this point it would be wrong to group all Armenians on the same plate and consider them as one whole entity. This should be well understood. There will be Armenian communities that we will be able to dialogue with ... We should change their perceptions,” said the Turkish foreign minister.
