"Although the process has exhausted itself, all the dangers existing
in the protocols persist, since the Armenian-Turkish protocols are
still legally alive," Head of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation
(ARF) Bureau's Hay Dat and Political Affairs Office Kiro Manoyan told
a press conference today, commenting on the recent developments in
the Armenian-Turkish process.
According to him, the dangers will persist until Armenia recalls its
signature from the protocols.
Kiro Manoyan positively assesses the fact that the Armenian Genocide
was for the first time commemorated in Istanbul. However, it does not
allow us to conclude that the Turkish society has changed. Besides,
it was an opportunity for the authorities to avoid greater pressure,
he said.
Touching upon US President Barack Obama's April 24 address, Kiro
Manoyan said that unlike the previous years, this year Obama refrained
form uttering the word 'genocide' without any ground. "One should not
be inspired by his use of the term 'mets yeghern,' he added, because
they use it to avoid calling things by their right names," he added.
