Professor Yusuf Halajoglu, head of the Turkish Historical Union,
suggested to make a `fatal' step against the demands to recognize the
Armenian genocide in the February 3 issue of Turkish Huryet. He also
suggested to apply to the UN concerning the demands of the Republic of
Armenia.
Reminding of the genocide's recognition in many countries led by
France, Halajoglu said: 'Turkey should take a stunning step in the
created situation. We made a suggestion to the foreign ministry. We
should invite to the table of negotiations the state that touches upon
the genocide and tell them: ``prove and we will recognize that''. In
case of such a `fatal' step, Turkey is sure to repulse the `unfair'
attack and not a single state will agree to unfold negotiations with
it. Moreover, this step will make a serious impression ofthe
international community.
