European Union is not supposed to condemn the history, but rather
secure reconciliation and peace, EU Enlargement Commissioner Stefan
Fule said in response to a written query presented by a group of
European Parliament MPs who demanded him to clarify the European
Commission’s standpoint on the Armenian Genocide.

"European Union is an institution that should secure peace,
reconciliation, democracy, stability and prosperity in the region,"
stated Fule.

At the same time he urged on Armenia and Turkey to adhere to the
normalization of relations between the two countries and called on
them to ratify the Protocols in a reasonable time frame without any
precondition and also bring them true to life.

According to Fule the normalization of the relations will contribute
to the establishement of security, stability and cooperation in the
South Caucasus.
