Turkey President Recep Tayyip Erdogan can arrive in Yerevan on April
24, visit the Armenian Genocide Memorial and be made aware of the
mountains of evidences of the Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire.
The remarks came from Eduard Sharmazanov, vice speaker of the Armenian
Parliament, commenting at the request of ArmInfo on Erdogan's recent
call to the Armenian Diaspora.
To recap, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has recently urged
the Armenian Diaspora to prove its Genocide claims by bringing out
documents to support them. The Turkish president said Turkey's
archives are open.
Eduard Sharmazanov reminds Erdogan that the best proofs of the
Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire are in the Western Armenia.
These are thousands of Armenian churches and communities destroyed and
desecrated by the Turks, millions of Armenians deported from their
historical motherland, and the multi-million Diaspora in the world.
"The best evidence is the Deir ez-Zor desert where hundreds of
thousands of Armenian women, children and elderly people died. The
secret decision of the Young Turks government, and the May 24, 1915
statement by the Entente condemning Turkey's crimes against Armenians
and the entire humanity," Sharmazanov said.
