historic meeting
SUMMARY

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan is visiting Turkey to meet President Recep Tayyip Erdogan for discussions on normalizing strained relations. The visit marks a historic step, as Armenia and Turkey have never established formal ties, and their border has been closed since the 1990s.

Pashinyan's spokeswoman confirmed the visit, stating that all regional issues will be addressed. The discussions will include efforts for a comprehensive peace treaty and the regional impact of the Iran-Israel conflict.

This visit follows Pashinyan's earlier move to halt Armenia's campaign for genocide recognition.
