Turkieye Says Borders Can Be Opened With Armenia
(MENAFN- AzerNews)
Meetings between Azerbaijan and Armenia continue.
Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said this in an interview
with the "Sabah" publication.
He said that if relations normalise, Ankara will prepare a
certain scenario.
"In the end, we can implement a positive scenario, i.e., we can
open the border with Armenia."
Recall that the fifth round of meetings between the special
representatives for the normalisation of relations between Armenia
and Turkiye, Ruben Rubinyan and Serdar Kılıç, took place at the
Armenia-Turkiye border early this week.
The borders between Turkiye and Armenia have been closed since
April 3, 1993. After Armenia's occupation of Garabagkh, Turkiye
closed its borders, and diplomatic relations between the two
countries were suspended.
However, in July 2022, the Turkish Ministry for Foreign Affairs
announced that the two countries, in the context of a general thaw
of their relationship, plan to reopen the border "at the earliest
possible date," albeit only for third-party nationals.
