/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Being asked in the course of a forum organized by
Washington Brookings Institute and Istanbul Sabanci University the
question whether Turkey should acknowledge the Armenian Genocide,
former US State Secretary Madeleine Albright answered, “I suppose there
will be no harm of it. Large nations can apologize.” According to the
Zaman Turkish newspaper, citing the instance of Germany, Madeleine
Albright noted that the Armenian issue is “extremely sensitive”
in spite of the fact that “Armenians and Turks approach that tangled
historical problem in different ways.” «By doing it Turkey can become
the leading country in the region,» she stated.
