Turkey will not allow Armenia to promote the 1915 events as genocide,
Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said in his interview with
TRT Haber TV channel.
He said Turkey watches Armenia's activities on this issue, adding that
Armenia and Armenian lobby were particularly active on this issue in
2014. "But it doesn't mean that Turkey will leave it unresponded."
Cavusoglu said that Turkey is ready to create a commission to
investigate the 1915 events.
Armenia and the Armenian lobby claim that Turkey's predecessor the
Ottoman Empire allegedly carried out "genocide" against the Armenians
living in Anatolia in 1915. Turkey in turn has always denied "the
genocide" took place.
While strengthening the efforts to promote the so-called "genocide" in
the world, Armenians have achieved its recognition by the parliaments
of some countries.
Although Turkey has repeatedly proposed to create an independent
commission to investigate the events of 1915, Armenia continues to
reject this proposal.
