"Sooner or later, all nations will recognize these crimes against
humanity, and that doesn’t only mean the Armenian Genocide," said
Republican party spokesman Edward Sharmazanov while talking with a
Panorama.am journalist. In his words, many were pessimistic before
the vote, which turned out positive in the end.
"The whole world is moving towards democratization," he said. "Nations
cannot overlook crimes such as this."
Speaking about relations with Turkey, Sharmazanov said Armenia is
always ready to develop relations, without any preconditions. "Turkey,
on the other hand, puts up preconditions. Erdogan repeats that
to develop relations with Armenia, the Armenian side has to forego
Genocide recognition and remove itself from activities related to the
settlement of the Karabakh conflict," the Republican party member said.
In Sharmazanov’s opinion, if Turkey accepts its guilt, relations
between the two countries will improve and also become more
predictable.
