“Turkey will recognize the Armenian Genocide only when the Turkish
society realizes the importance of the occurrence,” member of the
All-Armenian National Movement Hovhannes Igityan said.

Head of the Turkish Department of the Oriental Institute of the
National Academy of Sciences Ruben Safrastyan does not share this
opinion. According to the latter, the time has come to transfer
the issue form the political aspect to international legal field,
particularly the Court of Hague, which should recognize that modern
Turkey is the follower of Osman Turkey.

According to him, a new phenomenon is observed in the international
law – a state’s genocide against another state is being condemned.
