"We welcome RA President Serzh Sargsyan's decision to visit major Armenian communities across the globe and discuss the Turkish-Armenian reconciliation process. But the point is what price we will have to pay for normalization of relations," she told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. "The protocols signed recently actually mean that Armenia renounces its 95-year struggle for justice," she said. Mrs. Avakian reminded that Turkey closed the border with Armenia and is obliged to open it "Armenians of Diaspora will express protest against these documents. Heirs of Armenians who escaped Turkish yataghan will never renounce their rights," she said.
