Establishing Turkey-Armenia ties unacceptable until Nagorno-Karabakh conflict is resolved: Azerbaijani governing party

"Azerbaijan and Turkey are strategic allies and our relations rely on the principle of "one nation - two states". There are many ties connecting our countries. Therefore, the talks held to reopen Turkey-Armenia borders and to resume diplomatic ties stirs up anxiety in the Azerbaijani public", the NAP senior official Mubariz Gurbanli said in an interview with party's official Web site.

On Aug. 31, Turkey and Armenia in the talks mediated by Switzerland reached an agreement to launch "internal political consultations" to sign the Protocol on Establishment of Diplomatic Relations and Protocol on Development of Bilateral Relations.

Political consultations will be completed within six weeks, and following that two protocols will be signed and submitted to the two countries' parliaments for approval.

Currently, Turkey does not plan to open borders with neighboring Armenia, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davudoglu said.

Armenian-Turkish ties have been severed since 1993.
