Armenian-Turkish reconciliation real

Turkish-Armenian reconciliation has become a reality, U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs, Daniel Fried, told a news conference in Yerevan.

“President Sargsyan’s football diplomacy encouraged the dialog between the two states. We welcomed the Mr. Sargsyan’s invitation and were glad that it was accepted. I am hopeful that the process will move forward, despite the existing problems,” the U.S. official said.
