"I am sure Hasmik Poghosyan will be invited to the opening of Aghtamar
Church," Kaan Soiak, Turkish businessman, told a press conference
today. Soiak is in Armenia to participate in a conference on the
economic and social effects of lifting the Turkish-Armenian border.

In his words, it is not easy to work in Turkey on lifting the border
although it is easier than a few years ago. "We do that for the sake
of our children," Soiak said saying he has two flags in his house –
Armenian and Turkish.

Despite of having an Armenian flag in his house, Soiak learned about
the Armenian genocide quite recently.

"Until recently, nothing was known about it in Turkey," he assured
also saying facts must be open for Turkish public without censorship.
