10:43, 19 March, 2015
YEREVAN, MARCH 19, ARMENPRESS. Turkey can change its position on
Armenian Genocide issue only under the pressure of Europe. The
Editor-in-Chief of Foreign Journalism Department of L'Espresso
periodical Gianni Perrelli stated this in a conversation with
"Armenpress". This is his first visit to Armenia.
Among other things, Perrelli noted that the time of his visit to
our country ahead of the 100th anniversary of the Armenian Genocide
has not been chosen accidentally. "Majority of the Western countries
has forgotten the tragedy of the Armenians. By all means, there are
intellectuals and activists, who remember what happened, but there
is a huge difference in the level of awareness in comparison with
Holocaust," he underscored.
In addition, Gianni Perrelli noted: "We know that the Armenian Genocide
served as a model for Hitler for the realization of the Armenian
Genocide, but many people have forgotten about that. Armenia is small
country and the Armenians need strong lobbying around the world."
Perrelli's visit to our country mainly aims writing an article based
on the meetings with the eyewitness-survivors of the Armenian Genocide.
