Mesrob II, the Armenian patriarch of Turkey, will attend for the
first time a conference on the Armenian issue entitled, "The Art of
Co-Existence in Ottoman Society: The Case of the Turkish-Armenian
Relations." Mesrob II confirmed that he would attend the three-day
conference beginning Thursday in Kayseri and said, "I am going
to the conference this time because it's been organized by young,
well-intentioned academics. They came to Istanbul and sincerely told
their stance." Professor Metin Hulagu, deputy dean of the Faculty of
Science and Letters of Erciyes University, said that the participation
of the patriarch was very important for them, and added, "We spoke
face to face with Mesrob II in Istanbul. We told him our aim. We
told him that we're not destructive but constructive. And he agreed
to attend the conference and give a speech."
