Azerbaijani presidential administration official comments on ongoing Armenia-Turkey dialogue

Signing any agreement between Turkey and Armenia without considering the solution of the Nagorno-Karabakh problem is contrary to Azerbaijan's interests, Head of the Azerbaijani Presidential Administration's Public and Political Department Ali Hasanov said.

The protocol's final version will be signed by foreign ministers of Armenia and Turkey Ahmet Davutoglu and Edward Nalbandyan on Oct.10-11, Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan told Trend News in an exclusive interview.

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, the Turkish Foreign Ministry said.

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