The European Union calls for normalization of relations between Turkey and Armenia, looking for the constructive dialogue between the countries to reach full reconciliation, EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini’s spokeswoman Maja Kocijancic told Sputnik on Thursday.
“The EU encourages further, meaningful steps paving the way towards full reconciliation between Turkish and Armenian civil societies. The EU remains committed to the normalization process of relations between Turkey and Armenia and encourages both sides to continue to engage in this process without preconditions,” Kocijancic stated.
While recognizing that there continue to be different views among the EU member states on the issue of 1915 events, the European Union is searching for ways to advance and support reconciliation, she added.
