"The recognition of the Armenian Genocide in Osman Turkey has not
only a moral, but also a political aspect: Turkey has committed a
crime and it should respond for its results," said Kiro Manoyan,
member of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (ARF) Bureau.
In his words, Turkey would have recognized the Genocide long ago if
it knew it would have no political implications.
"Despite the fact that Armenia has recognized the current Turkish
borders and the issue of territorial reimbursement is not included
in the agenda of official Yerevan, it does not mean that our next
generations cannot demand compensation for the Armenian Genocide in
the future," Kiro Manoyan declared.
According to him, today's policy of official Yerevan in the
international recognition of the Armenian Genocide yields its results.
"It has been recognized by 18 countries already, the European
community is exerting pressure over Turkey regarding this question,"
Kiro Manoyan mentioned.
