Turkey may open its border with neighboring Armenia if relations between Yerevan and Baku are normalized, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan has said.

"The negotiation process between Azerbaijan and Armenia is ongoing. We need to prepare our scenario in case of its positive outcome, and work is underway in this direction,” Fidan told the Sabah newspaper.

“If it (the normalization process – Ed.) is completed, we will activate the positive scenario, which means we can open our gates on the border."

On July 30, the special representatives of Armenia and Turkey, Ruben Rubinyan and Serdar Kilic, met at the border of the two countries, confirming their intention to continue the process of normalizing bilateral relations without preconditions.
