Turkey and Armenia on Tuesday resumed talks aimed at normalizing ties after a two-year lull and agreed to simplify visa rules for some passport holders, the two countries said.
Ankara severed diplomatic and commercial relations with Yerevan in 1993 in support of Azerbaijan during its war with Armenia over the Nagorno-Karabakh region, and has deepened ties with the ethnically Turkic Azeris in recent years.
Turkey and Armenia have long been at odds mainly over the 1.5 million Armenians who Yerevan says were killed in 1915 by the Ottoman Empire, the predecessor to modern Turkey.
