During his address at the ARP 12th Congress today the Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan referred to the Armenian-Turkish normalization and Nagorno-Karabakh settlement and once again reconfirmed that the Armenian-Turkish normalization assumes no preconditions.

President said that the Armenian-Turkish normalization doesn’t mean suspension of the international recognition of the Armenian Genocide, but just vice versa, the normalization will contribute to the earliest recognition.

In his address Serzh Sargsyan highlighted that in the normalization process we should be very resolute.

President said NKR is for the peaceful regulation of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and the Armenian party will allow no encroachment on Karabakh, and in case of the latter, harsh measures will follow.

“Both with Turkey and Azerbaijan Armenia’s national and state interests will be a priority and above all,” President said.

Serzh Sargsyan also referred to Armenia’s inner-political, social-economic and other issues.
