/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Europe is not merely part of the world or a
political unit, but a community having cultural and moral values,
based on human rights.

Thus, I am asking, where is the place of Turkey in the European
family?" said Catholicos of the Great House of Cilicia Aram I in a
letter sent to French President Jacques Chirac. Aram I thanked Chirac
for his stand on the Armenian Genocide.

"With a special joy I hail the statement on the Armenian Genocide
you made in Yerevan, expressing the stand of the French people. Your
stance is worth of France and its principles in human rights," says
the message.

Aram I also remarked that the international community should approach
the Armenian Genocide, which is unpunished until now, with full
seriousness. "I believe in dialogue between cultures, religions
and peoples. However recognition of justice should precede dialogue
and reconciliation," Aram I said, reports the Press Chancellery of
Catholicosat in Antilias.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
