Does Armenia need normal relations with Turkey at the expense of historical memory loss?
The latest visit of Armenian Foreign Minister Edward Nalbandian to Istanbul aroused even more questions than the September meeting of Armenian, Turkish and Azerbaijani foreign ministers in New-York. During the visit foreign ministers of both countries made a number of sensational statements, the most shocking of which was the intention of Ankara to send her ambassador to Armenia without establishing diplomatic relations. If it were to happen anyway, it would be too difficult to even imagine what it is going to look like in practice.
