    Fried: Armenian Genocide Allegations is a Complicated Issue

    Journal of Turkish Weekly, Turkey
    March 17 2006

    Daniel Fried, the US Assistant Secretary for European and Eurasian
    Affairs, said the Armenian genocide allegations is a "complicated
    issue" and must be examined by the parties in a courageous way.

    Fried together with Upper Karabag (Karabagh) problem negotiator Steven
    Mann met Turkish Foreign Ministry officials yesterday.

    Speaking after the talks Fried said, "Tragedies of the past must be
    handled with courage and nations must look at their futures."

    The US diplomat underlined he has no message about the Turkey-Armenia
    relations, indicating the US's attitude towards the issue is
    well-known, and President George W. Bush will probably make a relevant
    statement on the issue this April as he does every year.

    The American official added the issue of Washington's demand of
    opening the Turkish-Armenian border also came to the agenda during
    the contacts.
