ArmInfo. The opposition Republican People’s Party (RPP) of Turkey
demands a plenary session of the parliament to discuss "the strategy on
fighting Armenian ideas" and assess the Protocols signed with Armenia.
CNNturk reported that RPP vice presidents have already applied to the
Directorate of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey with relevant
proposal.
The proposal, in particular, says that government by Justice and
Development Party, maintenance of the Armenian-Turkish Protocols in the
parliament and creation of an impression that they may be ratified is
the strategy related to the annual speech of the US President on April
24. However, it is quite a dangerous position. After the US Congress
Committee for Foreign Affairs affirmed the resolution on Armenian
Genocide, further circulation of the Protocols in the parliament will
create a false impression that their ratification process has been
started and will provoke pressure on Turkey, the document says.
