Recognition of Armenian Genocide First of All Turkey's Domestic Issue

PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenia is always ready to dialogue with all its neighbors, Armenian Speaker Tigran Torosyan stated, when answering questions of readers of the Golos Armenii. In his words, this refers both to Azerbaijan and Turkey. At that he noted that "it is impossible to solve any problems under the conditions, which are created in Azerbaijan and Turkey, where hatred to Armenian people is inseminated." "The latest evidence is the meeting of the Catholicos of All Armenians in Istanbul, which is shameful for Turkey," the Speaker emphasized.



As for the issue of the Armenian Genocide, Torosyan remarked that "it would have been strange, if we doubted the fact of the Genocide and started discussion with Turks of whether it happened or not." "We have another question to discuss with them - how to advance. Thus, it is first of all a domestic issue for Turkey and its people," Torosyan said. The Speaker added that peoples become increasingly aware that genocide is a crime against humanity and it is necessary to recognize that fact to avoid its repetition. "This is evidenced by recognition of the Genocide by Parliaments of many European countries," Torosyan remarked.
