Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu has delivered a speech in the Committee on Foreign Relations of the parliament.

Turkey’s Aksam newspaper reports that Davutoglu also replied to an MP’s question about the likelihood of opening the Armenian-Turkish border.

The Turkish FM confirmed that they are carrying out activities in Igdir region and on the railway in order to open the border ahead of 2015.

Davutoglu also said that he is due to visit Azerbaijan in the near future and if he manages to convince Baku, they could make a surprise to Armenia.

“If Armenia withdraws troops from Karabakh, we will open both the Armenian-Turkish border and the railway,” he noted.
