Nikol Pashinyan has positive impression of  meeting with head of   Turkish state

ArmInfo.Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan had a positive impression of the meeting with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, which took place in  October in Prague. He stated this in an interview with the Public  Television of Armenia.

According to Pashinyan, the conversation showed that his and  Erdogan's views are not incompatible, as it sometimes seems. This  does not mean that Armenia or Turkey have abandoned their previous  approaches at the negotiating table. The point is that with  consistent work and the presence of political will, the desires of  the parties can be combined, which will mean the normalization of  relations. "It is clear that the Azerbaijani factor is somehow  present in the conversation between Armenia and Turkey. But what the  parties say at the official level about the need for normalization  without preconditions is already not bad. And who said that we do not  want a settlement of relations with Azerbaijan? We also want it, and  at a meeting with the President of Turkey I tried to present a number  of nuances about how Armenia perceives Turkey's position on a number  of issues," he said.  Pashinyan drew attention to the fact that  recently Turkish officials have made statements that are a new  phenomenon. In particular, Erdogan's adviser recently noted in an  interview the importance of the issue of the rights and security of  the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh. The Prime Minister considers this  an important element. Of course, relations between Turkey and  reaction in the event that Baku hinders the normalization of  relations between Yerevan and Ankara. He expressed hope that his  meeting with Erdogan and the meetings of the special representatives  on the normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations would eventually  bring results.
