recognition the Armenian Genocide, on the air of CNN Turk.
"We recognize the Armenian Genocide without question. The Kurds and
others certainly have played a role in the Armenian Genocide, but the
political will [to commit this genocide] was that of the Young Turks'
party, led by Enver and Talaat Pashas.
"If Turkey claims to own the Ottoman heritage, let it own it [, the
Armenian Genocide], too. If not, let it come to grips with this
tragedy," Selahattin Demirtas specifically noted.
