ARFD: RA President shouldn't go to Turkey

PanARMENIAN.Net - ARF Dashnaktsutyun insists that RA President should not go to Turkey for the return match between the Armenian and Turkish soccer teams.



"Serzh Sargsyan should have rejected the Turkish President's invitation after Turkey tried to impose its preconditions on Armenia," said Kiro Manoyan, ARFD Hay Dat and Political Affairs Office director.



"Armenia and Turkey are not on the threshold of opening of the border," he said.



"Given Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan's latest statement that the border will not be opened unless progress is fixed in Karabakh process, Serzh Sargsyan has no reason to visit this country," Mr. Manoyan said.
