Armenia probe
Kathimerini
Wednesday March 9, 2005
Turkish PM Recep Tayyip Erdogan called yesterday for an impartial
study of Armenian claims that their people suffered genocide at
the hands of Ottoman Turkish troops during and after WWI. Turkey has
always denied the genocide claims but has been irked by growing calls,
especially from within the EU, that it recognize a genocide occurred
as an historic fact. "We have opened our archives to those people who
claim there was genocide. If they are sincere, they should also open
their archives," Erdogan said. (Reuters)
