April 22, 2013 - 17:28 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - First Deputy Speaker of the Parliament of Iran
Mohammad-Hassan Aboutorabi Fard's statement on the Armenian Genocide
is unprecedented in terms of bad relations between Turkey and Iran,
editor-in-chief of Tehran-based Alik newspaper Derenik Melikian said.
Iranian MPs and politicians always attended the events commemorating
Genocide anniversaries organized by Armenian Cause office of Iran,
with deputy speaker coming up with a separate speech.
In his speech, deputy speaker Aboutorabi said, "those who hands are
stained with Armenian blood are now taking the same measures against
Syrian people."
Thus, he practically justified Armenian demands in Genocide recognition
campaign.
"Iranian-Turkish relations on Syrian issue have recently deteriorated
as Iran attaches special importance to the Syrian crisis resolution.
Otherwise, Iran has full right to establish peace in the region and
use political and diplomatic tools in prevention of the strengthening
of Sunni Islam in the neighboring country," Melikian said.
