ARMENIAN WEDGE ALWAYS HINDERED PAN-TURANIAN PROGRAM: ALVARD PETROSYAN

"Why did they forget so soon today that the Armenian wedge has always
come between the realization of a pan-Turanian plan?" said Armenian
Revolutionary Federation (Dashnaktsutyun, or ARF-D) MP and publicist
Alvard Petrosyan at a press conference today. She didn't agree with
those who say that Turkish officials' statements are directed to an
internal audience. "Absolute cynism [and] absolute aggression have
been Turkey's policy over centuries, which is very characteristic of
imperial states," the publicist noted.
Petrosyan emphasized that today Armenian-Turkish relations have become
the most harmless topic and all the nation, leaving internal problems
aside, has focused their attention on this one issue. The publicist
thinks today the nation is again split because of this topic, and one
sees no possibilities of the nation arriving at a common denominator
on the Armenian-Turkish issue.
According to the MP, "hysterical patriots" who say "no" to the
Protocols came out, and on the other side, there are those who
say "yes." According to Petrosyan, however, the naysayers and the
yes-sayers must sit down and discuss and find the right direction,
since "we have laid the foundation for the most terrifying events
and we'll doubt whatever decision we make."
Petrosyan also explained who are the these "hysterical patriots"
who are against Armenian-Turkish relations. They, according to the
MP, are in no way members of the Dashnaktsutyun Party, for whom the
Armenian-Turkish topic has always beeen an issue, but they are those
who have just come out of the woodwork and who speak out against the
establishment process of Armenian-Turkish relations.
