"US Armenian Community Became One Of The Strongest Links In The Issue
of international recognition of Armenian Genocide. I am sure the
Diaspora will proceed with its mission. Armenian Genocide recognition
is inevitable," RA President Serzh Sarsyan stated in Washington
National Cathedral.
Addressing Diaspora's concerns over the possibility for Armenia-Turkey
Protocols to impede international recognition of Armenian Genocide,
he stated: "Time came to prove these concerns to be groundless. Over
the last months, we witnessed Turkey's failed attempts at presenting
Armenia and Diaspora as divided in their opinions. We're here to
disprove these hollow surmises. There are no separated Armenia and
Diaspora, but only a united Armenian nation," Serzh Sargsyan stressed.
According to the President, Ankara is ready to normalize ties with
neighboring countries, unwilling, yet, to yield to preconditions. "Our
position in Armenia-Turkey rapprochement remains unchanged: we will
not allow Ankara to set preconditions to Armenia and Diaspora."
Armenian President stressed that Armenia will not allow to question
the fact of the Genocide, or allow suppositions on the possibility for
Turkey to play a positive role in Karabakh conflict settlement issue.
As he noted, it is a norm for any newly-adopted direction in foreign
policy to be put to the test. "And I'm confident, we will pass this
test with dignity," Armenian President emphasized.
