Turkish and Armenian foreign ministers Ahmet Davutoglu and Edward Nalbandian will discuss Turkish-Armenian protocols during a meeting in Munich next week.
Davutoglu met with his Armenian counterpart on Jan. 28, the Anadolu Agency reported.
During the 15-minute meeting, the ministers discussed amendments by the Armenian Constitutional Court in the content of protocols signed between Turkey and Armenia.
"Davutoglu once again brought to Nalbandian's attention the new situation after making these amendments," the agency reported.
The Armenian FM stressed that the process for adopting the protocols continues in both nations' parliaments.
Next week Davutoglu and Nalbandian will meet once again and continue their discussions at a meetingon security in Munich.
Davutoglu and Nalbandian signed the protocols to normalize relations between Turkey and Armenia Oct. 10, 2009.
Diplomatic relations between Armenia and Turkey were broken due to Armenian claims of an alleged genocide and its occupation of Azerbaijani lands. Their border closed in 1993.
Amendments have been made to the signed protocols during discussions last week at the Armenian Constitutional Court.
The conflict between the two South Caucasus countries began in 1988 when Armenia made territorial claims against Azerbaijan. Armenian armed forces have occupied 20 percent of Azerbaijan since 1992, including the Nagorno-Karabakh region and 7 surrounding districts. Azerbaijan and Armenia signed a ceasefire agreement in 1994. The co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group - Russia, France, and the U.S. - are currently holding the peace negotiations.
Armenia has not yet implemented the U.N. Security Council's resolutions on the liberation of the Nagorno-Karabakh region and the occupied territories.
