    HAYK DEMOYAN: TURKEY WON'T BE GIVEN THIRD CHANCE

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ It was clear that after Protocols' signing in Zurich
    a pause should have occurred. This could also be characterized as
    the end of so-called football diplomacy, Armenian Genocide Museum
    director Hayk Demoyan said. According to him, after RA Constitutional
    Court's resolution was passed, Turkey attempted to turn the situation
    to its own advantage to insure itself against possible pressure
    of superpowers.

    "Turkey's discontent over the resolution is Ankara's second attempt to
    set preconditions after Protocols' signing," he told a news conference
    in Yerevan. He also added that this attempt will weaken the first
    precondition, stipulating for parallel processes of Karabakh conflict
    settlement and Armenia-Turkey rapprochement.

    At the same time, he did not preclude the possibility of Turkey's
    trying to set the third precondition, related to the resolution of
    RA Constitutional Court and Armenian constitution on international
    recognition and condemnation of Armenian Genocide in Ottoman Empire.

    According to Demoyan, international community might not quite
    understand reasons for such actions and preconditions.

    According to him, after the resignation of the first Armenian President
    Levon Ter-Petrosyan in 1998, Turkey lost a chance at resolving its
    issues with Armenia. "Failure to normalize ties will put Turkey back
    where it started," Armenian Genocide Museum director said.
