"Don't keep silent about the Armenian Genocide, continue the open
dialogue, allow the world to learn more about it, and one day there
will certainly be a proper response," Lithuanian President Valdas
Adamkus said during the meeting with faculty and students of the
Yerevan State University.
He characterized the Armenian Genocide issue as a "gentle and sensitive
one" and urged the Armenian people to do all in this direction that
it considers correct.
As for the question how Lithuania's recognition of the Armenian
Genocide has impacted the country's relations with Turkey, Valdas
Adamkus responded that the relations between states should develop
based on mutual respect and a friendly atmosphere. If Turkey follows
these principles, no problems will emerge.
"If Turkey wants to be a member of the European Union, it should
develop its relations with other countries, including Armenia, based
on this principle," Valdas Adamkus said.
