Turkish-Armenian Relations

Turkey & Armenia continue to work towards normalizing their relationship, but some see Turkey as taking a step back by suggesting that opening the borders will require Armenia to cease occupation of the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh in Azerbaijan.

However, Armenia's former foreign minister, Vartan Oskanian, says that Armenia has "lost the battle," by allowing Turkey to determine when and how the border will be opened while gaining nothing in return.
