Istanbul. Mayis Alizadeh - APA. "I am from Gaziantep, everybody knows
that the Armenians together with the French killed about 5000 civilians
in the region. Our "intellectuals", who have launched apology campaign,
do not speak about Armenians' aggression against Turks in Anatolia
and Caucasus," former minister of state Hasan Jelal Guzel told APA's
Turkey bureau exclusively. He said those who started Armenian apology
campaign were known for their double standards in Turkish society.
"They support Barzani in northern Iraq, but do not speak about
Turkmens undergoing aggression in Kirkuk. These "intellectuals"
always had biased position on Turkish people. Those who have launched
this campaign say they do it to eliminate enmity between the two
nations. But in order to eliminate enmity Armenia should fulfill
the conditions. President Abdullah Gul visited Armenia and Armenian
leadership will visit Turkey. Some other steps may be taken, if the
relations improve.
For that at first injustices against Azerbaijan should be eliminated
and Armenians must withdraw from the lands they occupied. If our
"intellectuals" starts such campaign while we are trying to normalize
relations in the region, I will bring to agenda the oppressions
Armenian dashnaks committed against us 100 years ago. Then it will
create tensions and damage the peace process. It meets interests of
Armenian Diaspora before anything else".
Hasan Celal Guzel said the Armenian Diaspora did not want the
normalization of relations between Turkey and Armenia. "The main issue
for them is a rancor and revenge. Our "intellectuals" are playing into
the hands of Armenian Diaspora with starting this campaign. The Western
media is writing now that the Turkish "intellectuals" also started
to recognize the fact of "genocide". Barack Obama was elected the
President and he made some promises to Armenians. Barack Obama may use
the phrase of "Armenian genocide" on April 24. Instead of prevention
this action, we give an opportunity to the Armenian Diaspora. It is not
particular to unveil military secrets to betray the homeland. These
"intellectuals" are betraying the homeland. The "intellectuals",
who called their country as a "state committed genocide", are high
traitors. This process will have a negative impact on the Armenian
people too. This campaign damages the Turkey's policy and benefits
for the Armenian Diaspora".
