Reopening of Armenia-Turkey communications is essential for more stable and prosperous South Caucasus – Toivo Klaar

The EU Special Representative for the South Caucasus and the crisis in Georgia, Toivo Klaar, said the meeting between the Special Representatives for Armenia-Turkey normalization was important.

“Important meeting yesterday on the Armenian-Turkish border between Serdar Kilic and Ruben Rubinyan. Normalisation of relations and the reopening of communications between Turkey and Armenia are essential elements for a more stable and prosperous South Caucasus,” Klaar said in a post on X.

As reported earlier, the meeting between the Special Representatives for the Armenia-Turkey normalization process took place on July 30 at the Margara-Alican crossing of the border. The Armenian Foreign Ministry reports that the sides agreed to assess the technical requirements to enable the functioning of the Akhurik/Akyaka railroad border gate in line with regional developments as well as to simplify their mutual visa procedures for diplomatic and official passport holders.
