/PanARMENIAN.Net/ In an open letter addressed to Canada's Prime
Minister Stephen Harper, the Congress of Canadian-Armenians called on
country's government to encourage Ankara to respect the commitments
under recently signed Protocols.
"The Congress of Canadian Armenians supports this accord. It will
hopefully lead to the resumption of normal diplomatic ties and the
reopening of the shared border between the two countries.
Normalization of relations between Armenia and Turkey is an important
and overdue step, but true and lasting conciliation requires the
Government of Turkey to come to terms with history and recognize the
Armenian Genocide," say the authors of letter.
The Congress also expressed gratitude to Canadian Government for
acknowledging Armenian Genocide and supporting efforts towards
achieving its international recognition.
