Turkey is prepared to establish a joint commission to investigate
events relating to the so-called Armenian genocide, Turkish Foreign
Minister Ahmed Davutoglu reported at a joint press conference with
his French counterpart Alain Juppe, Turkish television channel TRT
Haber reported.
"Turkey is ready to establish a joint commission to carry out a
thorough background investigation of this issue," Mr. Davutoglu said.
Armenia and its lobby claim the Turkish Republic's predecessor, the
Ottoman Empire, committed genocide against Armenians in Anatolia in
1915. Pressured by Armenian propaganda, the governments of a number
of countries have recognised the so-called 1915 genocide.
