Gul to Sargsyan: We'll Move Forward if You Will
Turkish President Abdullah Gul , responding to the message of Armenian President Sargsyan, today said that Turkey and Armenia will continue to work to move the normalization process forward based on the understanding reached between the two countries on Nov. 10 of last year.
"We have to be aware that concluding this historic process will require honoring our commitments in their entirety as well as displaying adequate political courage and vision," Gul said according to Hurriyet Daily News.
Turkey allowed President Sargsyan’s plane to use the country’s airspace while flying to London last week. The Armenian president sent a courtesy message to Gul while passing through Turkish airspace.
"I also agree with you that responsible governance necessitates both standing behind words and supporting words with deeds," the Turkish president said. "Overcoming the long-established prejudices and nurturing mutual understanding and trust among our two neighboring peoples were indeed our main objectives when endorsing the process of normalization between our countries. You should have no doubt that our determination to move these objectives forward is intact, provided that this resolve and commitment remains reciprocal."
