    Pro Patria public movement calls for declaring November 22 a state holiday
    20.11.2009 22:11 GMT+04:00

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Pro Patria national movement calls for declaring
    November 22 - the day of signing Woodrow Wilson's arbitral decision on
    Armenian-Turkish border - a state holiday, movement representative
    Marine Vahradyan said in Yerevan. `The day became decisive for
    Armenia, so we have submitted our proposal to National Assembly,' she
    stressed.

    Commenting on RA-Turkish Protocols, she said the most convincing view
    in that regard was expressed by Head of Modus Vivendi analytical
    center Ara Papyan. Sharing his position on documents, she pointed out
    to the inadmissibility of recognizing Armenian-Turkish border as
    stipulated in Kars Treaty. `The only international document on
    recognizing the border is US President Woodrow Wilson's arbitral
    decision,' she stressed.

    In turn, Armenian studies expert Vazgen Vahradyan said, `We have a
    powerful weapon to win Turkey. That's international law which favors
    Armenia's interests.' Addressing RA-Turkish Protocols, he said Armenia
    doesn't need to normalize relations with Turkey because bilateral ties
    `are normal as it is'. `Our relations with such recidivist state are
    deemed quite natural,' he said, adding that bilateral ties
    normalization would be possible only in case of Turkey's recognizing
    Armenian Genocide and eliminating its consequences. `I don't need
    Turkey's apologies unless consequences of Genocide are abolished,' he
    added.
