PanARMENIAN.Net - Head of the Regional Studies Center named several
areas where Armenian Genocide recognition campaign is waged.
As Richard Giragosian told a press conference, the foreign policy
Armenia pursued in recent years yielded tangible progress in Genocide
recognition.
"Turkey spends more resources for promotion of its denial policy as
the number of countries that back it gradually becomes smaller. The
closer Armenian Genocide 100th anniversary is, the more intricate
the issue becomes for Turkey. It is noteworthy that Azerbaijan has
intensified its support for Turkish denial policy," the expert said,
forecasting tougher Azeri pressures on Armenia and NKR after Azerbaijan
assumes presidency of the UN Security Council.
Mr. Giragosian further stressed the need for considering the problem
of Turkey and Azerbaijan in the context of its interrelation with
other genocides.
