Armenia and Turkey sign a deal under the watchful eyes

Hope you caught the news as I suggested about following Secretary Clinton's travels with her first stop in Zurich where she faciliated and witnessed the historic signing of a protocol between Turkey and Armenia. This signing has huge implications for this region, the gas and oil pipelines, and energy reserves, US bases able to supply the region, and a whole bunch of other stuff that includes the "frozen conflict" between Azerbaijan and Armenia. Plus, the final issue might be the 1.4 Armenia who live in the US...it is yet unknown how they will respond to the signing. You might be able to let me know.

It will be interesting at work this week...Azerbaijan is not necessarily happy about the signing...I'll let you know what the chatter is "around the water cooler"...
