/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "The Armenian issue has again caused Turkey’s
headache, for the Armenian Genocide recognition affects the core of
Turkish identity," Director of the Institute of Oriental Studies,
Professor Ruben Safrastyan said during round-table discussions titled
"Turkey after presidential elections: constitutional changes and
internal transformations."

According to him, a European survey showed that 37-38% of Turkish
population believes not to be Turks.

"Turkey eyes Armenia’s renunciation of the Genocide recognition as
the only way to normalize relations.

The rest is a political game. If Armenia makes concessions on the
issue, Turkey can even arrive at a favorable decision on the Karabakh
conflict," he noted.

“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
