ARMENIA BADLY 'EXPLOITS' THE 1915 GENOCIDE FACT: RECTOR OF RAU
"I think that we are badly 'exploiting' the fact of Armenian Genocide
in Ottoman Empire in 1915. Maybe we have a task and we are on the way
to achieve it - to press on Turkey with the whole world to
acknowledge the responsibility for the bloody facts in their history.
And only after we made them take over the responsibility for that can
we move forward", said Armen Darbinyn, Rector of Russian-Armenian
(Slavonic) State University (RAU) at the meeting in the University.
"We want Turks to be better. Out strives for the world's
acknowledgement of the Genocide resulted in that 22 countries, where
Armenian Diaspora is strong, acknowledge the Genocide", said the
Rector. "What does asking for excuse mean? Only the strong can do
that. Germans have publicly asked for excuse of Jews for the
Holocaust. And to prove that they 'purified' themselves they adopted
a law on criminalizing denial of Jewish Genocide", he pointed out.
A. Darbinyan added that there is no political party in Germany that
would come up with nationalist slogans. He goes on "There is a party
of the kind in Austria, in France, there are many of such in Russia,
but there is none in Germany. Turks are not ready to beg their pardon
before us. We want to press on them to make them purer, better,
nobler but we won't succeed in it because they are not ready yet".
"We are placing Turks in the core of our foreign policy and actions
that in the end lead to making Turks better. Maybe it is an important
task but we have other more important tasks. There is a task before
us - to make ourselves better. This is the goal we must achieve,
otherwise the victims we have had won't be revenged", stressed A.
