PanARMENIAN.Net - Turkey's special representative for the normalization of relations with Armenia Serdar Kilic has visited Kars Province on the border with Armenia on Sunday, July 24, GazeteKars reports.

Kilic visited the ruins of Ani, the currently closed Turkish checkpoint in the village of Akyaka – a short distance from the border checkpoint on the Armenian side.

The same source reported earlier that Turkey has allegedly started to demine the area bordering Armenia, GazeteKars reports citing local residents.

Armenia and Turkey last December named special envoys to discuss the normalization of ties. Four rounds of talks followed on January 14, February 24, May 3 and July 1. During their last meeting, they also agreed on commencing direct air cargo trade between Armenia and Turkey at the earliest possible date and decided to initiate the necessary process to that effect.
