Turkey and Armenia have agreed on a road map to normalize relations the Turkish Foreign Ministry announced late Wednesday night, dpa reported. The negotiations "have been working intensively with a view to normalizing their bilateral relations and developing them in a spirit of good-neighbourliness, and mutual respect, and thus to promoting peace, security and stability in the whole region," the ministry said. The statement said the negotiations have "achieved tangible progress and mutual understanding." The two neighbours do not have diplomatic relations and Turkey closed its border with Armenia in 1993 after Armenia invaded the Azerbaijan territory of Nagorno-Karabakh.
