/PanARMENIAN.Net/ In 2004 chairman of the Germany-based organization
"Union Against Genocide", Turkish journalist Ali Ektem collected 11
thousand signatures of German Turks standing for the Armenian Genocide
recognition. The signatures were submitted to the parliaments of
Germany and other European states.
According to Ali Ektem, the main goal of his organization is the
recognition and condemnation of the Armenian Genocide by Turkey
and the Turkish society. He said the signatures were first of all
submitted to the Turkish parliament but no response has come so far.
"Hostility cannot last eternally. Turkey should resign itself to
the fact and acknowledge the Armenian Genocide. I am convinced that
the peoples residing in Turkey will also condemn and acknowledge
the reality," Ali Ektem underscored. In his opinion, international
organizations have much to do in this view. "They should act as
mediators in the dialogue between the Turkish and Armenian nations
to liquidate the consequences of the Genocide," Ektem considers.
