Turkish parliament to discuss document
"The normalization talks between Turkey and Armenia have entered a sensitive phase," Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan said, adding the protocols inked between two nations will be sent to the parliament next month.
According to "Hurriyet", the Turkish Prime Minister told a conference at the Princeton University in New York that the document would be sent to the Turkish parliament on October 10 or 11 .
"We have reached an important stage with the step we have taken with Switzerland's mediation, and I believe we can send the initialed document to the parliament if we do not face any prejudice and if steps are not taken by just thinking about the internal politics," said Erdogan.
The prime minister also said that Armenian President Serge Sarkisian could visit Turkey for a World Cup qualifier between Turkey and Armenia in October with comfort as the Turkish President Abdullah Gül visited Armenia for an away match last year.
"Turkey will have neighborly relations with Armenia within the framework of mutual respect," added Erdogan.
