Accepting The Armenian Nation's Friend Prize at the Tashir-2010
ceremony, Chairman of the Russian Liberal Democratic Party Vladimir
Jirinovsky said: "It's very nice to be awarded with the Prize;
however, Turks will immediately respond to this and will award me
with The Turkish Nation's Enemy Prize, so then I'll have to travel
to Turkey to accept it."
"I am perfectly aware of the importance of the April 24 Day to the
Armenian nation; I perfectly aware that we still live in the world
where stomach is more important than thoughts, and where kerosene
is more important than honor and dignity; but anyway we will step
by step move towards reaching the common understanding and justice,
and those who caused enormous harm to the Armenian people, will
have to recognize and acknowledge the happenings, that took place 95
years ago," he said referring the 1915 Genocide, committed by Turks
against Armenians early in the 20th century, resulting in more than
1,5 million deaths among the civil population of Armenian origin.
"Though it's impossible to bring all the killed people back to lives,
even if Turks acknowledge their crimes and pay compensations and
surrender territories," added Jirinovsky.
