From the BBC, another attempt at Turkish-Armenian rapprochement bites the dust:

The Armenian coalition decided to halt the ratification process of the accord signed in October last year after Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said it would depend on a peace deal over Nagorno-Karabakh, the Armenian statement said.

"Considering the Turkish side's refusal to fulfil the requirement to ratify the accord without preconditions in a reasonable time, making the continuation of the ratification process in the national parliament pointless, we consider it necessary to suspend this process," the statement said.

I'm beginning to realize that growing up a Cleveland sports fan was great preparation for a career in international politics. So close, yet so far:
