SWISS PARLIAMENTARY DELEGATION TO VISIT TSITSERNAKABERD ON APRIL 24TH
13:38, 23 March, 2015
YEREVAN, 23 MARCH, ARMENPRESS. The names of the delegates of
the Confederation of Switzerland to be attending the ceremony
for the commemoration of the victims of the Armenian Genocide at
Tsitsernakaberd Armenian Genocide Memorial will be announced in
the next two weeks. In response to "Armenpress"'s question, Swiss
Ambassador to Armenia Lukas Gasser said the names of the delegates
are currently being specified. "The names of the official delegates
will be announced in the next two weeks. However, at this moment, I
can declare that the Parliament of Switzerland will be represented by
quite a large delegation at Tsitsernakaberd," Gasser said. Touching
upon Armenian-Turkish relations, Gasser said he was willing to play
the role of a mediator as he had six years ago.
"Switzerland is willing, if the sides express the desire to normalize
relations. We have close ties with the Turkish and the Armenian
authorities. We are aware of the Armenian government's recent decision
to recall the Protocols from the National Assembly, but even taking
that into account, we believe the Turkey-Armenia Protocols will serve
as the best way of normalizing relations between the two countries,"
Lukas Gasser said.
