FURTHER ARMENIAN-TURKISH TALKS PLANNED. Senior Armenian and Turkish
diplomats will "very likely" meet next week to prepare an agenda for
a further meeting in Istanbul on 25 June between the two countries'
foreign ministers, Armenian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Dziunik
Aghajanian told RFE/RL's Armenian Service on 10 June. She added that
Ankara has softened its earlier refusal to consider Armenian calls
for establishing diplomatic relations and opening the
Armenian-Turkish border without preconditions. The "Turkish Daily
News," which on 10 June reported the planned preparatory talks,
commented that "a golden opportunity [exists] for the two states to
break down the historic barriers" between them. LF
