ARMENIAN ISSUE-UK: Ismet Berkan comments on the Armenian issues and
relations with the UK in the centre-Left Radikal: "As far as I know,
only the UK has made a statement at government level saying: 'There
was no Armenian genocide'. Now if the UK says 'the things written in
the Blue Book are all true' as an answer to our parliament's letter
asking the British parliament to acknowledge that genocide
allegations in the so-called Blue Book were just British World War I
propaganda against Turkey what will we do then? Is there any sense
losing a friend for no reason? Unfortunately, Turkey's initiatives
about the Armenian issue do not give the impression of being well
conceived."
