Repentance for Armenian Genocide perpetration will do good to Turkish societyMarch 7, 2008 - 15:19 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - "Armenia is ready to establish diplomat relations with Turkey without preconditions at any time. It's Turkey that sets rather odd demands," Armenia's Prime Minister and President-elect Serzh Sargsyan told Rossiyskaya Gazeta."The only civilized way to resolve problems between two states is establishment of diplomatic relations. Unfortunately, Turkey has not matured for the decision yet," he said. Asked why the Armenian Genocide recognition issue is of principal importance for Yerevan, Mr Sargsyan said, "This tragedy of our nation cannot be forgotten. Not the Republic of Armenia but Armenians living in different countries raise the issue. Recognition of the Armenian Genocide is a priority for Armenia's foreign policy. Through recognition, the international community will prevent crimes against humanity in future. Repentance for the Armenian Genocide perpetration will do good to Turkey which seeks membership in the European family."
