"New Times" political party leader Aram Karapetyan today lambasted the Armenian government’s attempt to normalize relations with Turkey, labelling the process as causing more harm than good. "Armenia has not benefitted at all. The border remains closed and relations with Turkey are tenser than before. We are also now facing a possible resumption of hostilities over Karabakh," Mr. Karapetyan said, adding that, "We started a process that was ill-conceived and fraught with complexity which has lead us into a dead-end." Mr. Karapetyan said there were two solutions in this situation – either a change of policy requiring new elections or war. "Either new political forces will come to power and war will be averted, or war will break out and a new government will come to power as a result."
