"Many myths have been created around the developments connected with
the Armenian-Turkish relations," Director of the Armenian Genocide
Museum-Institute Hayk Demoyan told a press conference today. According
to him, those myths should be shattered, because those discussions
create unnecessary tension.

"A natural process is underway, and there have been impulses from
different sides, but the Armenian side gave the most serious impulse
by sending out an invitation to the Turkish President," Hayk Demoyan
noted.

Hayk Demoyan said there are more preconditions for establishment
of diplomatic relations than opening of the border. "The logic of
establishing diplomatic relations is more compelling: if you refuse to
establish diplomatic relations, you demonstrate your hostile attitude
towards that country," Demoyan stated.
