American Armenian historian, Academician Richard Hovhannisian considers
the speech of the Pope Francis to be big progress. The Pope called
the Armenian Genocide the first genocide of the 20th century.
"We also learn that Germany is ready to recognize the Armenian
Genocide. This year the recognition of Genocide has been more
widespread than ever," Richard Hovhannisian told "A1+".
Mr. Hovhannisian thinks that the Diaspora has a big role in the
recognition of the Armenian Genocide, and if the Diaspora didn't exist,
the Genocide would be forgotten, "With its limited capabilities the
Diaspora fights against the denial policy and has had much success."
As to the Turkish policy, Richard Hovhannisian says that Turkey
doesn't want to take responsibility, which is unacceptable for us.
