/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The activation of international recognition of the
Armenian Genocide has provoked serious disturbances in the political
circles of Turkey, which have launched an intensive campaign to
deny the Armenian Genocide both within the country and outside of
it. As is mentioned in the RA MFA annual report on Armenia's foreign
activities in 2006, the counteraction to the international recognition
of the Genocide is included in a number of political priorities
of Turkey. Turkish Foreign Minister Abdullah Gul confessed that
during the coming 10 years the most important problem for Turkey
will be the international recognition of the Armenian Genocide,
and as a consequence, the worsening of relations between Turkey and
third countries. In this regard Ankara has initiated elaboration
of a state countermeasure program, which according to the Turkish
side, does not exclude the possibility to apply to international
instances. Azerbaijan also has joined to Turkey's efforts aiming
at opposing international recognition of the Armenian Genocide: in
Turkey and a number of other countries have taken place Turkish-Azeri
joint discussions, state and public structures of both countries have
implemented different measures. In contrast to the Armenian Genocide
Azerbaijan with Turkey's assistance pushes through the so called
'Azeri genocide at the beginning of 20th century and in 90ies',
emphasizing on the events in Khojalu.
Armenia takes every necessary steps to neutralize Azeri and Turkish
anti-Armenian moves and propaganda.
