    Erdogan, Baykal agree to cooperate on Armenian issue
    09/03/2005 11:52:35

    Opposition Republican People's Party (CHP) leader yesterday visited
    Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Parliament to brief the premier
    on his party's plans on the so-called Armenian genocide allegations,
    and he called on the government to work together with opposition
    parties in Parliament on the issue.

    Speaking after their talks, Erdogan stated that they had agreed to
    join forces. "Turkey is ready to resolve the issue. It has opened up
    its state archives," said Erdogan, calling on everybody to come and
    study them. Baykal, for his part, said that the Armenian genocide
    allegations began after 1975 and are politically motivated. He urged
    Armenians to open their state archives as well.
