Hikmet Chetin in an interview with Haqqin.az: “Azerbaijan’s leadership is informed about progress of Turkey negotiations with Armenia”

“The Armenian opposition and the diaspora make every effort to disrupt the negotiation process to normalize Armenian-Turkish relations,” said Haqqin.az, ex-head of the Turkish Foreign Ministry Hikmet Chetin.

According to a senior diplomat, negotiations of plenipotentiary representatives of Turkey and Armenia are held in normal mode. Chetin notes a constructive atmosphere at the meetings of Ruben Rubinyan and Serdar Kylych in Moscow and Vienna.

It also emphasizes that the leadership of Azerbaijan is fully aware of the Armenian-Turkish negotiations and fully supports this process, since the positive results of the Armenian-Turkish political dialogue can have a positive impact on the Armenian-Azerbaijani negotiations on the implementation of a tripartite agreement of November 10, 2020.

“Now the main problem is the destructive impact of the Armenian diaspora on the domestic political situation in Armenia, – Hikmet Butin believes.” The diaspora seeks by any ways to torpedo the process of restoring the relations of Ankara and Yerevan, realizing that its success may be a decisive factor in achieving the final world between Azerbaijan and Armenia “.

Chetin also notes that the so -called question “Armenian Genocide” is no longer a factor that makes an impossible dialogue between Ankara and Yerevan. According to the former Foreign Minister of Turkey, from now on this issue will not be dealt with politicians, but historians.

“Nikol Pashinyan shows the will and the desire to restore normal relations with neighboring countries, without which the economic development of Armenia is simply impossible, – Hikmet Betin is convinced.“ But the constructivism of the Prime Minister definitely does not suit radical forces in Armenia, which continue to demand his resignation . Pashinyan is in a very difficult situation and we need to help him. “
