/PanARMENIAN.Net/ During the recent years Armenia has made the
international recognition of the Armenian Genocide of 1915 in the
Ottoman Empire an irreversible process, Ruben Safrastyan, Director of
the Institute of Oriental Studies at the RA National Academy of
Sciences of Armenia, told a news conference in Yerevan.
Turkey is not twiddling its thumbs either. The existence of the
Turkish Republic based on non-recognition of the Armenian
Genocide. There is no a politician or party in Turkey who could
acknowledge the fact of the Armenian Genocide in the Ottoman Empire,
Ruben Safrastyan said.
As to domestic crisis in Turkey, Mr Safrastyan thinks that the current
situation is a test for the country. `If the General Staff stops
interfering into the internal policy and allows normal election it
will be a step towards democracy. If not, Turkey will remain a state
fitting to Ataturk's plans,' he said.
