We hope this time substantive discussions will begin between the two special representatives, discussions aimed at opening the Armenia-Turkey border and establishing diplomatic relations. Armenia’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Ararat Mirzoyan said this during the Parliament-Government question-and-answer session, referring to the second meeting scheduled for February 24 following the already cognitive meeting between Armenian and Turkish special envoys.
“The signals, messages and hints coming from official Ankara are mostly in a positive context, and so are our expectations,” he said.
Touching upon the possible participation of Armenia’s Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan in the diplomatic forum to be held in Antalya in March, Mirzoyan noted that the issue of the Prime Minister's participation has not been discussed and is not being discussed.
“An invitation has been sent in my name and Ruben Rubinyan’s name, there is really no decision, the decision will largely depend on the results of the Vienna meeting to be held on February 24,” said Ararat Mirzoyan.
