YEREVAN, 30 JANUARY, ARMENPRESS. The number of countries wishing to be
hosted in Turkey on the day commemorating the victims of the Armenian
Genocide won't cast a shade on the April 24th events. Coordinator of
the State Commission on Coordination of Events for Commemoration of
the 100 thAnniversary of the Armenian Genocide Vigen Sargsyan told
`Armenpress'.`Yesterday the President of the Republic gave a very
clear evaluation of the Turkish authorities' decision to reedit their
country's history due to political considerations. We're skeptical of
those
attempts and believe that they are not only in vain, but also
dangerous,' he said.
According to him, Armenia will try to remind its partners that
participation in any celebration on the date customized on the day of
remembrance of the Armenian Genocide is inappropriate. `However, based
on the fact that there will be interests that the leaders of some
countries might have in Turkey, I don't think we should link them to
the commemoration ceremonies to be held in Armenia. We are
commemorating our victims not to prove anything to anybody, but to
show that we are leading our struggle. If our friends come to support
us, we will highly appreciate
that. If they prefer to be in Turkey on that day, we will draw our
conclusions,' the official said in closing.
Recently the President of Turkey invited President of the Republic of
Armenia Serzh Sargsyan to Turkey to attend the celebration marking the
anniversary of the Battle of Gallipoli, which coincided with the day
marking the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide through the
small efforts of the Turkish authorities. Representatives of the Staff
of the President of Turkey announced that the invitation had been sent
to the leaders of 102 countries. President of the Republic of Armenia
Serzh Sargsyan responded toErdoÄ?an's letter with a response letter.
