YEREVAN (Yerkir)-Western Armenian lands must be returned to Armenia,
said Armenia's Ambasador to Switzerland, famous singer Charles Aznavour
in an interview with Italy's RIA3 television channel.
"When I was born, in 1924, [they] promised Armenia the return of
lands. I am 85 years old and I cannot wait much longer," said Aznavour.
"In 1924, Stalin promised Armenia the return of Erzeroum, Erzngan,
Sebastia, Kharpert, Dikranagert, Bitlis, Van, Moush... The 'Wilsonian
Armenia' also included regions of Trabizon, Erzeroum, Van and Bitlis,"
said Aznavour while welcoming the prospects for establishment of
diplomatic relations between Armenia and Turkey.
"It would be pleasant to see open borders in the last part of my life,"
added Aznavour.
