The fourth conference of the Turkish Coalition of America (TCA) was
held in Tbilisi, Georgia, from June 5-8. The event featured more than
80 scholars from 15 countries. The conference was organized by Prof.
M. Hakan Yavuz of the University of Utah and sponsored by the Turkish
Coalition of America (TCA).
Present at the conference were political scientist Ara Papyan, Director
of the Modus Vivendi Center, and historian Garabet Moumdjian, lecturer
at the California University.
The conference made no reference to the Armenian-Turkish relations,
and only one of the 71 reports was dedicated to the Armenian Genocide.
Therefore, the conference was more of scientific nature, Ara Papyan
said. At the same time, he did not rule out that the sponsors pursued
the aim of denying the fact of the Armenian Genocide yet again.
Ara Papyan said it's necessary to step from the campaign for
recognition of the Armenian Genocide to compensation claims.
Garabet Moumdjian noted, in turn, that the issue of reimbursement
should become the main target ahead of the 100th anniversary of the
Armenian Genocide.
The historian considers that the issue needs diplomatic and legal
solutions, without bypassing the scientific aspect. He added that
the judicial proceedings demand a huge preparatory work.
