Orhan Kemal Cengiz, the columnist of the Turkish Radical paper
published his second article on the Armenian Genocide entitled
'Compensation and Decision' where he talks about the possible steps
Turkey can make towards the Armenian Genocide.
We present a part from the article.
"Turkey can solve the Armenian issue both on a humanitarian and on
a legal level. We acknowledge that a great human tragedy occurred in
1915. We condemn the Government of the Young Turks, who organized it
and apologize to our Armenian brothers. Turkey must not stop at only
apologizing but must develop a legal approach for compensation.
Believe! Turkey can realize that and solve the problem easily.
However, in order to realize it Turkey must stop the denial policy
which humiliates us before the world. We must face the tragedy of
the Ottoman Armenians. The most important thing is to be honest with
ourselves. The rest can be easily solved," the reporter of Radical
writes.
To note, in his first article Cengiz had mentioned that no one doubts
the Armenian Genocide occurred in Turkey in 1915.
