We don't accept the style of references to the Armenian-Turkish
dialogue in attempts to avoid recognizing the Armenian Genocide,
said Armenian President Serzh Sargysan in Deir ez-Zor, while on a
three-day official visit to Syria.
"I don't think it helps the process. Moreover, it is irrelevant
to cite some Commission of Historians, since the Armenian-Turkish
protocols provide for merely a governmental sub-commission on historic
dimension. I assume everyone understands what it means and what the
difference is.
I ask all those who will have an occasion to elaborate or express
themselves on the topic of the recognition of the Armenian Genocide:
remember of this dessert, millions of ruined human fortunes and this
ancient people deprived of their motherland and with pain in their
hearts, before you make up your minds," reads a press release of
Sargsyan's Deir ez-Zor statement issued by the RA presidential office.
Yesterday, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, in an interview
with Vladimir Pozner of Russia's Channel One, and responding to a
question by a viewer, said that neither she nor President Barack Obama
had forgotten their pledge of support to recognizing the Armenian
Genocide. Clinton referred to the Armenia-Turkey rapprochement and
the process of normalizing relations outlined in the Armenia-Turkey
Protocols.
"And in those protocols, there was an agreement between the two
countries to establish a historical commission that would look at
all of the issues that are part of the past," she said.
