THE 1915 GENOCIDE IS AN AXIOMATIC REALITY, SAYS YEGHIAZARIAN
Aysor, Armenia
March 25 2010
Armenia’s government underestimates diplomatic opportunities of Turkey,
said at today’s press conference member of the Social Democratic
Gnchakian Party, former deputy minister of national security of
Armenia, Gurgen Yeghiazarian.
He said considers it unacceptable to agree to the historical commission
to study the 1915 Genocide, which is contained in Armenia-Turkey
protocols.
"Genocide is an axiomatic reality to us as well as for the world.
Turkey is trying to harm the process of international recognition of
the Genocide through the historical commission," said politician.
Gurgen Yeghiazarian also pointed out that Turkey is setting out
terms and conditions, when at the very beginning of the process it
was spoken of normalisation of relations without any preconditions.
"There are numerous preconditions throughout the documents, while
exactly the Turkish side itself is obligated to open the border.
"They can’t keep the border closed for a long time," he added.
