POLISH SPEAKER: TURKISH DOCUMENTS PROVE THERE WAS GENOCIDE OF ARMENIANS

PanARMENIAN.Net - The Polish Sejm acknowledging the Armenian Genocide does not imply anything anti-Turkish, Polish Parliament Speaker Vladimir Timoshevich stated. In his words, it becomes harder and harder for Turkey to put off with the historical reality. When commenting on the fact of the Turkish authorities having sent a letter to the Polish Parliament, censuring the acknowledgement of the Armenian Genocide, Timoshevich noted, «Turkish authorities do not wish to account for their own discrimination against the Armenians.» «As of the question whether there was a genocide or not and whether Turkey is guilty - there is no doubt and Turkish documents confirm it,» Timoshevich underscored. «I understand it is psychologically hard for Turks, moreover that the events took place 90 years ago,» Timoshevich noted. However, in his words, such a response by Turkey is «incorrect and I do not accept such criticism.» Simultaneously he noted that it is not in interests of both Turkey and Poland not to drive the matter to discord over the historical issue. «There is no sense in it,» the Speaker noted. «The Turkish Foreign Ministry has done what it considered necessary on its part, however I hope that in a few days the problem will not be available any more,» he accentuated.
