| Yerevan, September 15. /Mediamax/. Armenia supports the establishment of
diplomatic relations with Turkey without any preconditions and wants to
provide this country’s positive involvement in the South Caucasian
region. Armenian Deputy Foreign Minister Ruben Shugarian said this in

foreign economic activity sphere. The overall volume of the production
