/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Turkish society, too, have concerns about some
provisions of the Armenian-Turkish Protocols that worry the Armenian
public, Ruben Melkonyan , a professor in Oriental and Turkic Studies
told a press conference in Yerevan today.
According to Ruben Melkonyan, it is a vivid example of a diplomatic
language, the protocols are written in and give rise to ambiguity.
As the expert stressed, the political and social circles in Turkey are
concerned, mainly, with the creation of the historical subcommittee:
what issues will be discussed with the Armenian side, if over 90
years Turkey has denied the fact of committing the Genocide.
Mr. Melkonyan also informed journalists that recently an opinion poll
has been conducted in Turkish to examine the attitudes to the opening
of borders with Armenia and 52 per cent of respondents were opposed
to opening the border and normalization of relations with Armenia,
only 28 per cent of polled supported the process of reconciliation.
