Turkey unlikely to ratify protocols without progress in resolution of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict: U.S. assistant Secretary of State

“It will be difficult for the Turkish parliament to ratify the protocols signed with Armenia unless there is improvement in Nagorno Karabakh conflict,” US Assistant Secretary of State Philip Gordon said at a news conference in Ankara.

He said Washington is concerned over Turkey’s support for Syria and Iran.

The U.S. calls on Turkey to cooperate more closely, but Washington is concerned over the support of Erdogan government for Syria and Iran.
