[United Press International] Turkey and Armenia to re-establish ties

9 October 2009 / ,
One of Europe's longest-running disputes could be resolved soon as Turkey and Armenia have agreed to re-establish diplomatic ties.
"Traitor," the protesters shouted at Armenian President Serge Sarkisian when he visited Paris last week. It was a rocky start to Sarkisian's trip to Armenian communities all over the world, a tour aimed at raking in support for his bid to reopen a new chapter of diplomacy with Turkey on Oct. 10. Last month Sarkisian and Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said they would sign documents to re-establish ties and reopen the countries' mutual border. The move would help Armenia economically and Turkey strategically.
