International recognition of the Armenian Genocide, territorial
reparations, restoration of Armenians' rights, consolidation of
statehood of Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh, protection of the Javakhk
Armenians' interests - these are the issues on the Hay Dat agenda,
Hakob Ter-Khachatryan, an ARF Bureau member, stated at a conference
of Hay Dat (Armenian Cause) Committees in Yerevan.
He laid special emphasis on the protection of the Javakhk Armenians'
interests in the context of the Georgian authorities' "consistent
anti-Armenian policy." As to international recognition of the Armenian
Genocide and territorial reparations, Ter-Khachatryan stressed some
of the Armenians' achievements - over 20 states have recognized the
Armenian Genocide. "But Turkey and Azerbaijan are exerting consistent
efforts to prevent the satisfaction of Hay Dat demands. The process has
been facilitated by the recently launched Armenian-Turkish dialogue,"
he said.
As regards the means of achieving Hay Dat aims, Ter-Khachatryan
stressed that Armenian lobbyists must keep in close touch with Turkish
dissidents, who do not share official Ankara's position on the Armenian
issue. "It may cause growing dissent in Turkey," he said.
Ter-Khachatryan also underlined the need for Armenian organizations
to intensify their cooperation with the peoples supportive of Hay
Dat and struggling against Turkey. "Of importance is also close
cooperation with world mass media and analytical agencies to bring
the truth about the Armenian Cause to the international community,"
Ter-Khahchatryan said.
