ANC refrains from commenting on statement issued by ruling coalition on freezing of Armenian-Turkish process

Coordinator of the Armenian National Congress Levon Zurabyan refrained from commenting on the statement issued by the ruling coalition forces on freezing of the process on ratification of the Armenian-Turkish protocols by the RA National Assembly. “The Armenian National Congress will express its opinion only after Serzh Sargsyan’s address to the Armenian people,” Levon Zurabyan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.

“As Turkey refrains from ratifying the Protocols without any preconditions within reasonable terms, the ratification of Protocols by the Armenian National Assembly becomes senseless. In our opinion, the process should be frozen and the discussion of these documents should be withdrawn from the parliament’s agenda, until Turkey agrees to continue the process without preconditions,” reads the statement issued by the political majority of the RA National Assembly on April 22.
