an invitation by RAI Italian State TV Company to take part in a
discussion on the Armenian Genocide, the Marmara newspaper reports,
referring to Sabah Turkish newspaper. Turkish Ambassador Uguru Ziyalin
has initiated the TV discussion. He stated that the Italian channel
often carries broadcasts on the subject of the Armenian issue, which
are in general one-sided. "We want Turkey's stance to be presented
as well," Ziyalin said. He also remarked that they earlier exchanged
letters with Armenian Ambassador Ruben Shugaryan. Shugaryan has agreed
to participate.
Along with the two Ambassadors, a historian representing each of the
parties will take part in the TV program. Omer Turan will accompany
the Turkish Ambassador. The name of the Armenian historian is not known
yet. Each Ambassador will speak 5 minutes, the opponent can interfere
5 times. Though the Turkish Ambassador objected to demonstration
of documents during the broadcast, as he considers it propaganda,
the TV company leaders wish to show these. The Turkish Ambassador
reported that the TV discussion is scheduled March 20 morning.
