Bak- Turk Federation: There Is No Single Armenian Who Would Like To
Be Side By Side With A Historical Document
ANKARA - BAK-TURK (Bulgaria, Azerbaijan, Crimea, Western Thrace)
Federation has held a symposium on the so-called Armenian genocide.
BAK-TURK's Deputy Chairman Cemil Unal has indicated that there is no
single Armenian in the world who would like to be side by side with a
historical document. ''Armenians do not want to face historical
documents as such documents would imply the end of their dreams of
establishing a 'Greater Armenia','' said Unal.
Unal criticized the Turkish government's decision to talk with the
Armenian President Robert Kocharian and commented that the suggestion
made to the Armenians was actually sent to the wrong address.
Former State Minister Dr. Haluk Cay has remarked that Armenians
betrayed Turks at a critical moment. ''Armenians not only hurt the
Turks, but also Armenians who did not think and act like them,''
stressed Cay.
Cay mentioned that during the war years not only Armenian populations
were deported but also those of Muslims. ''After the Russian troops
came to Erzurum, the Muslim population in the region were sent to
Central and Western Anatolia,'' expressed Cay.
The audience at the symposium were introduced certain documents on
genocide allegations and Armenian population figures during the war
years.
