"During the Soviet times, Sevr agreement was presented as a useless
piece of paper. Times have changed and today both historians and
politicians must discuss the issue on the other perspective," Director
of the Institute of History of the National Academy of Sciences told
a press conference today.
According to him, the Sevr agreement is an original Nurenbergian
precedent for the solution of the Armenian issue, where the justice,
finally, wins.
He didn't share the idea that excitation of the Sevr agreement is
adventurism.
"Today, to speak about something that has been legally recorded in 1920
by the Great Powers means to speak about the security of the Republic
of Armenia presenting the world the fact that Armenia is dealing with
the same massacre country, as the denial policy the Turks run decades
long is the continuation of the same genocide," he told.
According to Ashot Melkonyan, the issues are interrelated and one must
not be suspicious about the contemporaneousness of the Sevr agreement.
"Under the policy of genocide denial, Turkey will apply to the
International Court on the basis that the country is unfairly being
accused in genocide realization. The issue will be discussed in the
International Court very soon and we must be ready," he added.
On the occasion of the 90th anniversary of the Sevr agreement "Hayazn"
youth union has organized a march. During the march they visited
the embassies in Yerevan of the countries who have signed under that
agreement and passed reminder letters to them.
"The aim of this march is to show that the Armenian youth remembers,
demands and believes in the victory. We are waiting for bringing into
life the Sevr agreement in the near future," member of the "Hayazn"
youth union Armen Lazarian said.
