"TO BE OR NOT TO BE"

"The two-sided Protocols on Armenian-Turkish relations put forth
numerous preconditions," says Armen Aivazian, Director of "Ararat"
Center for Strategic Research.

Regarding Republican Party’s statement that the Protocols set no
preconditions and do not refer to the Karabakh conflict, Mr. Aivazian
said: "When in 1915 they displaced and drove people away to "safer
places," did they warn against the pending massacre? Surely, they did
not. The same is true with the Protocols which speak of the Artsakh
problem and the Kars Treaty omitting the names.

Armen Aivazian says he has written about Armenia’s wrong policy
towards Turkey for ten years.

"During the so-called "diplomatic relations" during the football
matches I made speeches signaling to the destructive effect of the
negotiation process. After the road-map was determined this April I
called the document "the first act of capitulation" to be followed by
new ones. Surely enough, the Protocols were signed in a few months by
which Turkey attempts to illegally formulate Armenia’s colonization."

Turkey aims to annihilate Armenians – a fact ignored by Armenian
authorities. We face a dilemma today. To be or not to be – this is
the question."
