FM Nalbandian: Armenia open to normalize relations with Turkey

I don't think my government (regardless of party or current president) will agree to normalization unless Azerbaijan allows it. Azerbaijan is simply more valueble as a partner and Armenia isn't really going to be all that open to us at first.

Likewise. Azerbaijan played a big role in the breakdown of normalization.

Also you need to make clear what your territorial ambitions are, there are 6 million people living in Eastern Turkey, the borders aren't going to open until they are sure you aren't threatening them.

If there are any territorial ambitions, it would be mainly restricted to the Treaty of Kars, which was signed by illegitimate parties and is violated by Turkey through the blockade of the border. Wilsonian Armenian is more or less a joke. At least I hope there are no Armenians who truly believe something as dumb as that.

You should take a look at the size of Armenia and its population one more time, and then liken that to what you just said. Who is the threat here? Who's land is being occupied?
