YERE VAN, SEPTEMBER 5, NOYAN TAPAN. According to the ARF Armenia Supreme
Body, the arrival of Turkish President Abdullah Gul in Armenia to watch
the football match of Armenian and Turkish national teams on September
6 is first of all a political step and the ARF's response to it is also
political.
"Turkey obviously defends Azerbajian in the Nagorno Karabakh conflict
and maintains Armenia's blockade. So far Turkey has not recognized the
1915 Armenian Genocide. Turkey continues destroying Armenian historical
and cultural values and persecuting ethnic minorities. Armenia proposes
establishing diplomatic relations without preconditions, whereas Turkey
is trying to force us: a) to give up Karabakh, b) to give up the issue
of recognition of the Genocide, c) to renounce our national-state
rights," is said in a statement of the ARF Armenia Supreme Body.
With the aim of presenting the current concerns and problems to the
Turkish president, the ARF Armenia Supreme Body will organize a protest
in Zvartnots Airport and the adjacent area on 5 pm on September 6 and
invites everybody who is concerned about the most important national
problems to participate in this action in order to show the unity of
the Armenians in the national problems and their determination
regarding the issue of the Genocide's condemnation, recognition and
elimination of its results, as well as the fact the Armenians disagree
that Turkey with its current posture will play a role in regional
issues.
