/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkish scientist, professor of Michigan University
Geychek, who participated in the scientific conference entitled
“The Consequences of the Armenian Genocide: 90 years later” held in
Los Angeles April 1-3, apologized to the Armenian people during his
speech, Yerkir online reports. In Geychek’s words, Turks do no know
history and they are not told what really happened. That is why the
Turkish people are convinced that there was no genocide. However not
all the Turks are ignorant, he noted. “We are not afraid not arrest
and we state in everyone’s hearing: yes, the Armenian Genocide really
took place”, the scientist stated. Despite the fact that the Turkish
government does not make any steps to reconciliation, the issue of
the Armenian Genocide recognition can be settled within 5-10 years.
