The opposition Armenian National Congress (HAK) holds a rally in
Yerevan on September 18.
HAK's senior representation Levon Zurabian says the rally will declare
the start of a new wave of the national movement at a decisive period
for Armenia and its people.
Turkey's interest in the formation of a sub-commission on the
historical dimension is evident. The sub-commission will dismiss the
worldwide recognition of the Armenian Genocide and smooth the tension
in Turkish-American relations.
Armenia will only receive guarantees for the border opening at the
cost of the Genocide denial. Moreover, if once Turkey needed a
government agreement to reopen the borders now the Protocols must be
ratified by the Turkish parliament. In this way, Turkey's government
pretends to be holding a constructive approach towards the
normalization.
Strangely though it may seem, the Protocols do not touch upon a
fundamental principle of the international right - "right of nations
to self-determination".
Armenian authorities are cheating by saying they have separated the
Karabakh issue from Armenian-Turkish relations and have reached an
agreement with Turkey without preconditions.
Armenian leadership is ready to any concession, even to mean bargains
over the Karabakh issue, to maintain its illegitimate power, runs a
Congress press release.
Asked what measures HAK will take to suspend the process, Levon
Zurabian said that on September 18 the Armenian National Congress
convenes a meeting, to highlight the details of Congress's future
steps.
