Activists of the We Apologize campaign have more accusations against
the Turks than the Armenians do, the Ankarahaber news agency quoted
Azeri Consul to Kars Hasan Sultanoglu as saying.

In late 2008, a Turkish Web site began issuing an apology to the
Armenian people for the crimes that the Ottoman Empire allegedly
committed against them in 1915.

Armenia and the international Armenian lobby assert that the Ottoman
Empire committed genocide against the Armenians living in Anatolia in
1915. In an effort to win the support of the international community,
the Armenian lobby has increased its propaganda in several countries
and a number of governments already now recognize the Armenian
genocide.

Sultanoglu said the Turks never committed a genocide and this is
proven by historical documents. The consul also expressed his concern
over the apology campaign launched in Turkey.
