Stepan Safaryan: Presidential meetings with Armenian Diaspora will carry imitational nature

PanARMENIAN.Net - "Not only signing of RA -Turkish protocols threatens international recognition of Armenian Genocide, it also poses risks where Armenian Diaspora's financial and political support is concerned," Heritage Parliamentary Faction Leader Stepan Safaryan told a news conference.



According to Safayan, Diaspora is Armenia's only strategic ally. "Should we not reckon with Diaspora while signing RA-Turkish protocols, we'll be unable to turn to it in future," Heritage representative said.



Stepan Safaryan characterized RA President's pan-Armenian tour as a belated step.



"Presidential meetings with Armenian Diaspora will carry imitational nature. We're aware of Diaspora's negative attitude towards RA-Turkish rapprochement, so meetings with RA president will mostly be attended by those ready to support him," Safaryan concluded.
