Cypriot Armenians' trust in Turkish community depends on its attitude about Armenian and Greek genocides
The contacts between the Armenian and Turkish communities of Cyprus have become more active, head of the Hai Dat Cyprus Office said.
"Both Armenian and Turkish communities were invited by presidential candidates for discussion of a scope of issues on the threshold of the election. During the meeting, the representatives of the Armenian community noted that the degree of trust in the Turkish community depends on its attitude about the Armenian and Greek genocides," Hakob Manoogian told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.
As to unification of the Greek and Turkish parts of the island, the UN plan is unreal, according to him.
"The population of Cyprus understands that Kofi Annan's plan can't be implemented unless Turkish troops are withdrawn," Mr Manoogian said.
