Coalition Proposal is a Message for Turkey and International Community

Caucasus Institute Director and political scientist Alexander Iskandaryan says the statement by the ruling parliamentary coalition over the ratification of the Armenia-Turkey Protocols is a clear message addressed to Ankara that Yerevan will not take an action for the ratification unless the Turkish side does so.

"These are, in fact, a talks about suspending the [ratification] process unless the Turks take clear-cut initiatives [for the ratification]," Iskandaryan told Tert.am, adding that the Armenian side should wait until President Serzh Sargsyan delivers an address later today in which he is expected to elaborate on the decision reached over the Protocols.

Alexander Iskandaryan also said he considered the coalition statement as a message sent not only to Turkey but also to the whole international community.
