Serzh Sargsyan calls Abdullah Gul to be resolute

Armenia’s President Serzh Sargsyan has sent a message to his Turkish counterpart Abdullah Gul, a spokesperson to Presidential Administration said.

“Flying over Turkey, I send my greetings to Abdullah Gul and neighboring Turkey’s people.

“Our initiative to normalise relations between Armenia and Turkey is the focus of international communities. The moment is really historical, and both we and the world realize this. We are highlighting the efforts that the countries, involved in the process of reconciliation, have been making. I believe that it would be difficult to success without their mediation. At the same time, I think that however the friendly countries are interested in the positive resolutions to the process they cannot do that what our peoples can.

“Mr. President, I think, you’ll agree that in the process of establishing trust and stereotype-free relations between the Armenian and Turkish peoples, the governments mostly play an especial role. We can success only believing in our work; and only standing resolutely and in principles. Otherwise, in case of a gap between words and doings, the uncertainty and mistrust appear letting the opposing against the process forces come through. So we must recognize that in this case time does not assist, but makes little sense for the process.

“As we turn out well in developing the bilateral relations up to the level of visible and sensible future of the natural relations between our countries, it’s time to demonstrate the determination to take a great step forward, and to create a stable and secure region for our next generations,” said President Sargsyan in his message.

It’s worth mentioning, that President Serzh Sargsyan is on the way to Great Britain, according to spokesperson’s report.
