Turkey's PM says Armenia in attempt to damage protocols

Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Wednesday Armenia attempted to make an operation on the protocols signed recently by Turkey and Armenia.

Erdogan's comments came after a decision made by the Armenian Constitutional Court on the signed protocols.

Speaking at a joint press conference with the Secretary General of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu in Jeddah, Erdogan said that "Turkey sent the protocols directly to the Turkish parliament without making any other institution an intermediary. We have not conducted an operation on the sentences. We have sent the protocols as they were signed and showed sincerity".

At the moment, Armenia has attempted to make an operation on the protocols. Such an attempt must be corrected. Unless a correction is made, the process would get damaged. We are not in a position to keep the relations between Azerbaijan and Armenia out of this context, Erdogan stressed.
