Turkey has further intensified its preparations for the 100th
anniversary of Armenian Genocide, with the Turks announcing that they
are going to work with the Armenian Diaspora, Turkish Studies expert
Artak Shakaryan told reporters in Yerevan, adding that Armenia should
also prepare for the year 2015 and be active on the international
arena.
The Diaspora should also organize itself, and develop a strategy of
work with the international community, according to Shakaryan.
"I am happy that many books on Armenian Genocide are published in
English, which present the Armenian Genocide to other nations,"
said the expert.
As to the Armenian-Turkish relations in general, Shakaryan said that
the current situation is even worse than it was before the signing
of the Armenian-Turkish protocols.
"Currently Armenian and Turkish diplomats cannot communicate even
in a third country as the Turks will present it as a dialogue,"
he concluded.
