Turkey wishes to mend fences with Armenian Diaspora: Davutoglu
12:15 / 03/26/2010 Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu appealed to
Armenian Diaspora in the interview with CNNturk TV channel.
We wish to mend fences with Armenia and Armenian Diaspora. From this
viewpoint, it is incorrect to consider all Armenians by the same rule.
Arriving in Turkey after Hrant Dink's death, renowned Armenians were
surprised to see Turkish people's support to Dink. I personally saw
that. We should change the mentality of people," Davutoglu said.
According to him, ties with U.S. Armenians are a new step towards the
normalization of relations with Armenia. `If U.S. administration
follows the lead of Swedish Government and makes a compelling
statement to Turkey, Turkish Ambassador to U.S. Namik Tan will return
to Washington and relations with Armenians will intensify,' Davutoglu
emphasized.
