WORLD RECOGNITION OF THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE BECOMING MORE AND MORE UNAVOIDABLE EACH YEAR
AZG Armenian Daily #078, 28/04/2007
Genocide Recognition
Although President of the USA George Bush continues to avoid saying
"genocide", he still remains the head of the only state in the
world that officially commemorates the victims of the massacres in
1915. Naturally, Turkey is trying to take counter-actions against
the recognition process and the Resolutions of the murder of Hrant
Dink and the Armenian Genocide pending at the both chambers of the US
Congress. Nevertheless it should be noted that the speech of George W
Bush and the Resolutions are not the only matter of Turkey's concerns.
This year on April 24 statements about the Genocide were made by
Nicolas Sarkozy and Segolene Royal, main candidates for Presidency in
France and Stefan Harper, Prime Minister of Canada. Royal and Sarkozy
expressed intention to strive against denial of the Armenian Genocide
in France.
Turkey also responded to the statement of Prime Minister
Harper. Foreign Ministry of Turkey says that there can be no friendship
of alliance between two states without justice and truthfulness. The
Foreign Ministry's statement also says that Harper's words can by no
means contribute the efforts of reconciliation between Armenia and
Turkey. The Turks call upon Harper to revise the events of 1915 in
objective and impartial atmosphere and urge the Canadian scientists
to do the same.
In any case, the statements by the pretenders fro the post of the
President of France, the April 24 speeches of the USA President and
the Prime Minister of Canada, the resolutions about Armenian issues
display one thing clearly - the world recognition of the Armenian
Genocide is becoming more and more certain year by year.
