US WILL SOME DAY RECOGNIZE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE
20:16 * 21.04.15
Secretary of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation Dashnaktsutyun
(ARF-D) Aghvan Vardanyan is sure that a real resolution of the
Armenian Cause can be expected after all the major nations of the
world recognize the Armenian Genocide.
"You know that the issue is being discussed. Numerous organizations,
including the ARF-D, formed a group of renowned jurists working to get
a legal solution for the package. It is a matter of time, and I am sure
that the moment all the major nations recognize the Armenian Genocide
we will have the issue dealt with legally," Mr Vardanyan told Tert.am.
As regards the possibility of Armenian-Turkish reconciliation, he
said that no Armenian-Turkish relations actually exist.
"Armenian-Turkish relations - what was envisaged by the protocols-
failed because of Turkey. Turkey is obviously setting preconditions
to Armenia, but we must follow our national aims, and the strength
of our positions depends on us."
Respect for a person, organization or nation depends on his or its
self-respect.
As regard US President Barack Obama's statement, Mr Vardanyan noted
that the US will some day recognize the Armenian Genocide.
"We have nothing to demand from anyone. The United States is a
state that declared panhuman values, and I think it will join the
discussions. But the moment it happens is their problem. The United
States is seeking to be the first in any matter, and I would not like
it to be the last in recognizing the panhuman values in question."
