The St. Khach (Cross) Church of Akhtamar Island in Lake Van will be
officially opened on September 12, said Zahir Kandasoglu, the Chairman
of Van Chamber of Commerce and Industry and invited all the Armenian
people to be present on that ceremony.
It was in 2007 that the opening ceremony of that church was held,
but it was without the church then.
"The cross will be placed on the church. The governor of Van is
working on that issue and that question will be solved till the end
of this month," Z. Kandasoghlu assured.
The Turkish official also touched upon the Armenian Genocide taken
place in 1915. "There have surely taken place some painful events
between our nations which didn't have to take place, but unfortunately
such events take place. On the territories of other countries such
events also took place."
Z. Kandasoghlu assured that the present generation of Turkey doesn't
accept it. According to him the new generation wishes to have good
relations with Armenia and the Armenian people, open the borders and
develop the economic relations and trade.
