ANKARA: ATAA Chairman: Allegations About So-called Armenian Genocide

ATAA Chairman: Allegations About So-called Armenian Genocide Are Not Humanitarian, But Political

Turkish Press

ANKARA (AA) – Allegations about so-called Armenian genocide were not
humanitarian, on the contrary, they were political, Vural Cengiz,
the chairman of the Assembly of Turkish-American Associations (ATAA),
said on Tuesday.

Holding a news conference after holding talks with the Turkish
government officials, Cengiz said, “we support the latest attitude of
the Turkish government against allegations about so-called genocide.”

“Any attempt to open the border crossing between Turkey and Armenia
will not eliminate those allegations since the Armenian plan is
composed of four stages: terrorism, recognition, compensation and
claims for territory. Armenian diaspora describes Republic of Armenia
as eastern Armenia and eastern part of Turkey as western Armenia,”
he said.

Cengiz added that they were planning to hold demonstrations to express
their reaction against those allegations.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
