YEREVAN (YERKIR) - The recognition of the Armenian Genocide is a
security issue for Armenia, Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanian
told a news conference on Wednesday.
We have a country as our neighbor that not only denies it had
attempted to destroy a whole nation but also accuses us; we cannot
have a considerable feeling of security with such a neighbor, Oskanian
went on saying, adding that Turkey, in addition, is openly backing
Azerbaijan in the Nagorno Karabakh conflict.
Oskanian also mentioned that in a situation when Turkey is trying to
join the European Union, a body that is based on the human rights,
Armenia should step up its work towards the recognition of the
Armenian Genocide.
