EU CALLS TURKEY TO NORMALIZE RELATIONS WITH ARMENIA

During the meeting with Mayor of Kars Naif Alibeyoghly Co-Chair of the EU-Turkey joint interparliamentary commission Joost Lagendijk stated that Turkey should normalize relations with Armenia. At the same time he noted that the Armenian-Turkish and Armenian-Azeri relations should be considered independently of each other. “Turkey should establish relations with Armenia. It is impossible to achieve any positive result by pursuing the isolation policy. I am convinced that Azerbaijan will manage to return the territories via dialogue and the European Union should take an active part in settling the dispute between Armenia and Azerbaijan”, EU representative said, Mediamax reports.
