ARMENIA
-------
¶3. (C) Sinirlioglu appealed for "simultaneity" between
Armenian Protocols ratification and the Minsk Process. He
emphasized "a strong reaction" against the protocols among
ruling party MPs had to be overcome before the government
would hazard a ratification effort. He warned Congressional
passage of an Armenian genocide resolution would "complicate"
his government's domestic political calculations regarding
ratification. He said if something acceptable to Azerbaijani
President Aliyev can found, then "we can move" the protocols
forward. Sinirlioglu suggested Azerbaijan and Armenia's
announcement of an agreed framework for Minsk Group progress
would provide the GoT with the necessary political cover.
Burns inquired about the prospect for progress on a natural
gas deal between Turkey and Azerbaijan. Sinirlioglu implied
Aliyev is holding an agreement hostage to Turkey's handling
of the protocols: "He doesn't trust us."

Турки и амеры хотят продвижения с протоколами, но предпологают, что это будет возможно только если какое то соглашение в рамках Минской Группы ОБСЕ между Арменией и азербайджаном будет подписано, инче волнуются, что турецко-азерский договор по газу провалиться
