Catholicos Aram I of the Great House of Cilicia of the Armenian
Apostolic Church refused the invitation to give an interview to
Turkish satellite television.
`There is no Armenian issue - as you put it - for the Armenian people. The
Armenian Genocide is an historical reality and, as such, it cannot
become a subject for discussion, dialogue, or talks,' the Great House
of Cilicia Department of Information noted in its response letter to
the invitation.
Stressing that Turkey must recognize the Genocide and pay
compensation, the letter's sources remarked that, `Turkey presents
itself as a human rights defender yet it continues to disregard the
rights of the Armenian people.'
