PATRIARCH MUTAFYAN SPEAKS AGAINST ARMENIAN GENOCIDE RESOLUTION

Mesrob Mutafyan, Patriarch of Turkish Armenians, spoke against
the Armenian Genocide resolution approved by the US House of
Representatives Committee on Foreign Affairs.

Patriarch Mutafyan visited the Santa Clause Church in Demre town of
the southern city of Antalya.

He told reporters during the visit that the resolution became a tool of
domestic policy in the United States, and called on people to exclude
Turkish citizens of Armenian origin from discussions over the issue.

He said that they will do everything in their power to prevent passage
of the resolution by the full House.

Recalling that Prime Minister Erdogan earlier proposed Armenia to set
up a joint commission of historians to deal with the issue, Mutafyan
added that it was a" significant offer," the Turkish Press reports.

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
