WILL ROBERT KOCHARYAN AND REJEP ERDOGAN MEET?

Official sources neither confirm nor deny the information about the possibility of direct negotiations.

May 2, 2005
The report of Ankara published "Zaman" newspaper can be called sensational. Referring to diplomatic sources, the correspondent of the newspaper states that in the nearest future the Prime Minister of Turkey Rejep Erdogan may initiate official meetings with the President of Armenia Robert Kocharyan. If the meeting really takes place, it will be an unexampled one. Although the Presidents of Armenia and Turkey have had some contacts during various international forums, their dialogue has never been focused on the solution of political problems between the two nations.
