YEREVAN, APRIL 24, NOYAN TAPAN – ARMENIANS TODAY. It is more Turkey
that should understand that sooner or later the whole world, every
state will recognize the Armenian Genocide. RA Deputy Defence Minister
Artur Aghabekian gave assurance in his interview to journalists on
April 24, at the memorial complex of the Armenian Genocide victims. He
mentioned that today steps aimed at the recognition of the Genocide
are taken even by the states that are to some extent guilty with their
indifference, their participation for the Genocide in Turkey. “I think
Armenia’s right diplomacy, right conduct will also awaken the states
that have been indifferent in the years of the Genocide and remain
indifferent today,” RA Deputy Defence Minister said. In response
to the question, whether Turkey will recognize the Genocide, Artur
Aghabekian said: “Turkey will have to recognize the Genocide. If it
does not recognize today, it will do this tomorrow, how can it deny
the historical justice?”
