Turkey aims to hinder Genocide 100th anniv. preparation - journalist

Turkey is concerned with Armenias’ preparations for the Genocide 100th anniversary in 2015, Istanbul-based Agos weekly former employee said.

As Diran Lokmagyozian told a news conference, the Turks think Armenians worldwide are making large-scale preparations for 2015, with Ankara deeming it necessary to take counteractive steps.

“It’s like a football match, with one of the contenders to win,” he said, slamming Armenia’s foreign policy as unspecified and characterizing it as wait and see one.
