YEREVAN, AUGUST, NOYAN TAPAN. Public relations, which unlike interstate
ones, involve wider people's mass, are of rather pivotal role in the
issue of improvement of the Armenian-Turkish relations. Turkologist
Ruben Melkonian expressed such an opinion at the August 7 press
conference. In his words, the Tukish society has a problem of truth
for communication with the Armenian society, that is perception and
realization of the historic past.
>From this viewpoint, unawareness exists in the Turkish society in
the consequence of which their majority displays denying approach.
In R. Melkonian's opinion, unlike the Turkish society, a calmer and
surface position prevail among the Armenian society. In his words,
it's reason is that the Armenian society better knows its past.
Touching upon the possible warming of the Russian-Turkish relations,
the Turkologist mentioned that Armenia must be able to orient and
conduct a right policy in that issue.
R. Melkonian thinks that the statement on RA President Serzh Sargsyan's
visiting Turkey contains messages in reminding about arrangements
with Turkey. In his words, the viewpoint is spread that the Turkish
President visited Armenia without preconditions while the RA President
presented preconditions for visiting Turkey.
