ONLINE PETITION OPPOSING PROTOCOLS HAS BEEN LAUNCHED

2009/0 9/29 | 14:35

A worlwide online petition opposing the "Protocols on the Establishment
of Diplomatic Relations between Armenia and Turkey" has been launched
at The petition calls for the outright rejection of
the protocols.

Initiated by philologist Krikor Beledian, essayist Janine Altounian,
journalists Arpig Missakian and Arpi Totoyan, historian Yves Ternon
of France, Professor Mihran Dabag, Director of the German Research
Institute on Diasporas, among others, the petition states that
"to submit such a unique experience as genocide to negotiations
and a judgment by governmental commissions or sub-commissions would
subordinate the truth to political maneuvers and power relations".

The document therefore considers that "by the signing of these
protocols, Armenia marginalizes the Diaspora, and enters into the
strategy of the Turkish State to divide the Armenian people and
to stigmatize and delegitimize the Diaspora for advocating the
consciousness of the Genocide".
