Turkey's denialist position in the Armenian Genocide issue demonstrates
the weakness of the Turkish state, Dimitris Konstantakopoulos, a
Greek journalist and expert, told Panorama.am on the sidelines of the
"At the Foot of Mount Ararat" media forum in Yerevan.
Commenting on the coverage of the Armenian Genocide in Greece, Mr
Konstantakopoulos said that the issue of Armenian Genocide is very
important for the Greek people for several reasons.
First of all, he said, the Greek people know very well what genocide
is as the Pontic Greeks have also experienced genocide.
Referring to Turkey's policy of denial, the Greek expert noted that
this demonstrates the weakness of Turkey.
"If Turkey felt that it was a strong state, it would have the courage
to acknowledge the truth," Mr Konstantakopoulos concluded.
