ArmInfo. Turkey is in talks with Armenia to normalize relations and
I am hopeful for a positive outcome, President of Turkey Abdullah
Gul said at a joint press conference with US President Barack Obama.
Gul said that Turkey is ready to face with the historic events and
reiterated his country's proposal of forming a commission of academics
and historians to investigate the issue. "These historic issues were
brought on the agenda on political grounds mostly by diaspora who
wants to protect its own identity," he said.
In his turn, Obama said: "My views (on 1915 incidents) are not
changed. What I have been encouraged by a series of negotiations in
place between Armenia and Turkey to resolve outstanding issues. I want
to be as encouraging as possible in moving negotiations move forward."
