Minister of Foreign Affairs of Armenia, Ararat Mirzoyan, responded to his Turkish counterpart, Hakan Fidan, who once again indicated that the normalization of Türkiye’s relations with Armenia remains conditional on the signing of an Armenian-Azerbaijani peace treaty.

“If we normalize relations at this point, we will have taken away the biggest reason for Armenia to sign a peace agreement with Azerbaijan,” Fidan said on Friday, according to the Turkish state news agency Anadolu. “When Azerbaijan and Armenia sign a final peace agreement, we will be ready to normalize relations with Armenia,” the Turkish Foreign Minister added.

In exclusive comments to Armenpress, Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan said that while neither process is conditioned on the other, normalization with Türkiye could actually have a positive impact on normalization with Azerbaijan.
