ANKARA, 17.06.04. Turkish parliament Speaker Bulent Arinch addressed
the Canadian parliament a letter of indignation at the recent
resolution by the Canadian House of Commons on the recognition of the
Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire. As reported by Turkish media,
the letter says that the Canadian top parliamentarians `should have
closely watched the Lower House and impeded the adoption of such a
resolution`. In his interview to Turkish press Arinch noted that
this resolution `will deteriorate the unsettled Armenian-Turkish
relations`. `Stirring up the dissension between the countries situated
in the most sensitive region in the world at present will not be of
benefit to anyone. Canada should take it into account and review her
erroneous decision`, the Turkish Speaker said.
