“According to Turkey’s announcement, RA-Turkish protocols will be signed by RA and Turkish Foreign Ministers on October 10. Yet, we’re informed the presidents will be the ones to sign protocols,” Heritage Parliamentary Faction Leader Stepan Safaryan told a news conference, citing anonymous sources.
Dwelling on negative aspects of preliminary protocols, Safaryan thought it strange that authorities do not agree to exclude disputable points from protocols, in case protocols do not contain any secret preconditions. “If agreement stipulations pose no threat and do not include preconditions, logics suggests they can be abandoned,” Heritage representative noted.
According to Heritage Leader, if alterations to protocols are unacceptable to Armenia and international community, there’s nothing left for opposition but to believe RA-Turkish agreement pursues long term goals.
