Armenian Genocide
"The recognition of the Armenian Genocide and Conviction is an
irreversible process. Turks have already conciliated with it", said
the Director of the Museum-Institution of the Armenian Genocide,
historian Hayk Demoyan. The step-by-step progress of the process is a
question of not only material, but also psychological importance to
Turkey. "Because of the recognition of the Genocide Turkey should
dethrone its heroes and re-interpret the historical-scientific
theories. Turkey cannot imagine a danger bigger than this one".
But it's not the end, as the recognition of the Armenian Genocide
by the world will isolate Turkey politically, according to the
historian. The Armenian society is the victim of the Armenian Genocide,
and Turks also are the victims of that Genocide: "Discovering the
reality Turks get a shock; it puts them to shame. And it bisects
the Turkish society and makes complexes about it. Turkish issues of
the Genocide are inside Turkey, as the divided society is a serious
trouble for them", underlined Hayk Demoyan.
According to him, the intention of Turkish armed forces to invade
Iraq also comes from the bisection of Turkish society and aims at
creating euphoric mood.
