Vahan Hovhannisyan: Dependence on Turkish policy is a disgrace for our state
"Armenian leadership is under the false impression that Turkish senior officials' statements are intended for domestic consumption," ARFD MP Vahan Hovhannisyan told today a parliament session.

At that he noted that Turkish FM Ahmet Davutoglu's recent statements on the necessity of fixing progress in Karabakh peace talks again testifies to the existence of preconditions in Armenian-Turkish Protocols, something the opposition had warned about.

The Protocols signed in Zurich between Armenian and Turkish FMs and the order of their ratification by two countries' parliaments (RA Parliament will ratify documents after Turkish Parliament's decision) clearly demonstrates that Armenia is not conducting an independent policy in the process. "RA leadership's policy depends on Turkish side's steps. That's a disgrace for our country," Mr. Hovhannisyan stressed.
