"Turkey is doing everything possible to prevent adoption of incorrect
decisions about the Armenian Genocide in different countries of
the world," Turkish State Minister Abdullatif Shener said in Izmir
yesterday, Trend agency reports.

"Despite the fact that the Armenian Diaspora is doing everything
possible to promote adoption of anti-Turkish decisions, official
Ankara will never allow the recognition of obviously made up,
historically ungrounded events during the last years of existence
of the Ottoman Empire, the Turkish Minister noted. "We are ready
to discuss the events of those years in the framework of a special
bilateral commission and adopt a corresponding decision, which we
will recognize. However, Armenia does not agree to that," Shener said.
