Honorable Mr. Abrahamyan,
Our parliamentary faction has learned that Mevlut Cavusoglu, President
of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE), has
expressed a desire to meet with the Armenian Revolutionary Federation
(ARF) faction of the National Assembly. However, we have also learned
that Mr. Cavusoglu refused to participate in the protocol visit to
the Memorial to the Victims of the 1915 Genocide. We believe that
this does not befit the leader of a major international organization.
Previous PACE presidents have never allowed themselves to show such
a disrespectful attitude, despite whether or not their own countries
had recognized the Armenian Genocide.
In this case, Mr. Cavusoglu seems to have no reservations in revealing
the fact that he is here to a lesser extent as PACE President and to
a greater extent as a politician from Turkey. Given this situation,
our faction considers it unsuitable to meet with him.
