The Armenian Turkish protocols are not dead by ill, Director of the
"Noravank" foundation Gagik Harutyunyan told a press conference today.

He does not consider the process is deadlocked.

"I think a new stage has started, where we have certain advantage,"
he said.

Commenting on President Sargsyan’s visit to Washington and his speech
at Woodrow Wilson Memorial, Gagik Harutyunyan said "it was a good
speech meant not only for the domestic, but also for outer audience."

Asked whether Obama will utter the word genocide in his April 24th
address, Director of the "Noravank" foundation said "the current
political situation tells Obama to refrain from uttering the word
genocide, but the possibility should not be excluded."

Gagik Harutyunyan does not attach much importance to Obama’s speech,
since it will not have legal consequences.
