ABDULLAH GUL: KOCHARIAN AND ERDOGAN TO MEET IN WARSAW MAY 16-17

During the meeting with the EU Ambassadors in Ankara Turkish Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul stated that Armenian President Robert Kocharian and Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan are likely to meet within the frames of the CE Summit in Warsaw May 16-17, RFE/FL reported. “Turkey is often called to open border with Armenia without taking into account the fact that Turkey cannot do that”, he said. “Pursuing the wrong policy of interference the Armenian Diaspora does not wish the Turkish-Armenian relations to develop. Despite this Turkey positively estimates Robert Kocharian’s reply letter”, Mr. Gul added. To note, yesterday Recep Tayyip Erdogan stated that “the meeting with Robert Kocharian in Moscow was not scheduled.” “If Armenia meets its commitments Turkey will exert every effort for securing just and lasting settlement of the regional problems”, Erdogan said. As PanARMENIAN.Net came to know, the Administration of the Armenian President does not possess any information on the possible meeting of the RA President and Turkish Prime Minister.
