Ankara, 5 May: Turkish MFA condemned the Argentinean Senate which
accused Turkey for committing genocide against the Armenians between
1915 and 1923. A statement by the MFA said Argentinean authorities were
earlier explained that such an initiative would be a mistake and many
times were conveyed the drawbacks which this initiative may lead to.
The statement said, "it is obvious that the attitude of the Argentinean
Senate is politically motivated and adopting such a statement which
lacks historical truth and full of mistakes, was an irresponsible act."
The statement said Turkey, a while ago, proposed the formation of a
Turkish-Armenian joint committee to investigate the incidents which
had occurred in the past, noting that the letter of Armenian Head of
State Robert Kocharyan was being assessed comprehensively and under
a positive point of view.
