/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Turkey will never recognize the Armenian Genocide
to improve its relations with Yerevan, said an executive of the ruling
Justice & Development (AK) Party.
Speaking at the panel discussion "Whither Turkey" hosted by the
Eastern Institute during the Krynica Economic Forum, one of the most
prestigious forums in Eastern Europe, in Polish capital city of Warsaw,
Egemen Bagis, deputy chairman of the AK Party, said, "Turkish Prime
Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan proposed Armenia to establish a joint
commission with the participation of the third countries and to open
archives. Armenia has not yet given a response to Turkey's proposal."
"Turkish President Abdullah Gul's paying a visit to Armenia upon
invitation of Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan is the most concrete
sign of Turkey's good-will. On the other hand, more than one million
documents examined upon directives of Turkey proved that those bitter
events were not genocide, but a civil war during a world war," he said,
the Anatoly news agency reports.
