"The ice has been broken in Turkey," Armenian Foreign Minister
Edward Nalbandyan said during Real Politics - a newly-launched TV
program broadcast by the Public TV Channel - while commenting on a
widely-circulated viewpoint that the existence of the Armenia-Turkey
Protocols will hinder the international recognition of the Armenian
Genocide.
"First of all, they cannot be an obstacle, and if we look at the
recent two years, [we will see] that the publications, comments,
discussions, attention [to the Genocide] have been multiplied for
several times in the world," said Nalbandyan.
According to him the most important changes are those that have
recently occurred in Turkey.
"Did you know that in December, 2008, some Turkish intellectuals
launched a movement by apologizing to the Armenian nation? About 35,000
Turks joined in that call. Two days ago on the occasion of April 24,
for the first time a commemoration was held on the central square
of Istanbul dedicated to April 24. The visits the Turks have been
paying during the recent two years to the Genocide museum-institute
[in Yerevan] have been multiplied compared with previous years,"
said Nalbandyan.
