LACK OF MONEY IS NOT OBSTACLE TO STUDY OF TURKISH ARCHIVES
Yerevan, January 29. ArmInfo. The director of the Armenian Genocide
Museum Hayk Demoyan calls a provocation the report of Zaman newspaper
(Turkey) that for lack of funds Armenia has rejected Turkey's proposal
for jointly studying the historical archives concerning the Armenian
Genocide .
Zaman says that Armenia and Turkey has never jointly studied the issue
so far, however, 92 countries have already recognized the Genocide
under the pressure of the Armenian lobby.
It should be noted that Armenia's official position is that the
Armenian Genocide is historical reality and is not subject to any
discussion. The 6-mln Armenian Diaspora is the best proof that the
Genocide did take place.
To remind, in his response to Turkish Prime Minister Recep Erdogan's
proposal for holding joint studies of the issue, Armenian President
Robert Kocharyan said that it is for the governments to develop
bilateral relations and they should not shift the responsiblity onto
historians. He suggested setting up an inter-governmental commission
for discussing the problem and finding appropriate solution.
