TURKEY: THERE IS NO INFORMATION ON CHANGES IN ARMENIA'S POLICY
Azg/arm
12 Nov 04
It has been several days now that Turkish press misleads readers by
informing that the Armenian government left the state budget of 2005
without money for promoting Armenian Genocide acknowledgement and
concludes that the issue ceased to be a priority for the country.
Yesterdayâ~@~Ys issue of Azg Daily explained Turkeyâ~@~Ys groundless
conclusions by the latterâ~@~Ys desire to confuse the international
community and to give signals to Armenia.
Press secretary of the Foreign Ministry of Armenia, Hamlet
Gasparian, said in an interview to Armenpress: "There is no change
in Armeniaâ~@~Ys policy as to international acknowledgment of the
Armenian Genocide. The issue of Genocide acknowledgement is still on
the foreign agenda of Armenia, and separate sentences in the budget
bill mean nothing".
Press secretaryâ~@~Ys words proved our evaluation of Turkish printed
mediaâ~@~Ys conclusions to be true. Itâ~@~Ys interesting that
the spokesman of Turkeyâ~@~Ys Foreign Ministry Namk Tan confirmed
Gasparianâ~@~Ys words on November 10.
Turkish Milliet writes that Turkey declared that there is no
information about Armeniaâ~@~Ys decision to remove the issue of
Armenian Genocide from its foreign agenda, therefore Yerevan will
not change its policy.
Tan made the issue clear at his meeting with journalists. According
to Milliet, Tan noted that the information on "the absence of
Genocide-related articles from 2005 budget bill" came from the
printed media only and that they have no facts stating the shift in
Armeniaâ~@~Ys stance except for the newspapers. Then he added that the
Armenian government displayed no wish to bring changes in the budged,
thus it is a waste of time to talk of Armeniaâ~@~Ys changed policy.
