/PanARMENIAN.Net/ `It is one of the most horrible tragedies the humanity ha
sever experienced. Today marks such events should never repeat. Fair peace
should be born from the sacrificed blood,' Vatican Ambassador to Armenia,
Georgia and Azerbaijan archbishop Claudio Gugerotti stated in a conversation
with journalists in the Memorial to Victims of the Armenian Genocide in
1915. In his words, Vatican's posture over the issue of the Armenian
Genocide `remains the same as declared by Pope John Paul II during his visit
to Armenia and the meeting with Catholicos of All Armenians Garegin II.' `It
is a statement of two churches, where the Catholic Church expresses attitude
to people who have experienced much sorrow.' It should be reminded that in
2001 John Paul II officially acknowledged and censured the Armenian
Genocide. Answering the question whether new Pope Benedict XVI acknowledges
the Genocide, the archbishop said, `Give him some time.'
