Armenia
The Armenian National Congress (HAK) has issued a statement on
President Serzh Sargsyan's decision on freezing the Armenian-Turkish
peace deal.
"The Congress is for the normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations
but does not accept Turkey's demand &'to set up a historians'
commission in order to study the events of April 24, 1915.
'The formation of the commission not only questions the Armenian
Genocide but also spoils Armenian-Turkish relations instead of
promoting the reconciliation process.
&'By signing the disgraceful protocols in Zurich, the administration
of Serzh Sargsyan pursued one objective -- to seek support for the
illegitimate regime coming to power through rigged presidential
elections and the massacre of March 1, 2008.
'The warning of the Armenian National Congress against that hazardous
process came true. Contrary to the uttered goals, the Armenian-Turkish
peace process turned into an Armenian-Turkish confrontation.
&'Taking advantage of Armenian regime's inability, Turkey consistently
continued linking the ratification of the Protocols and the opening
of the border with the settlement of the Karabakh conflict
'The international pressure in view of the Karabakh issue did not
decrease, rather, it increased to such an extent that Armenia, for
the first time in its history, had to restrict Karabakh's rights to
self-determination within Azerbaijan's territorial integrity /OSCE
announcement made in Athens/
&'Linking Armenian-Turkish rapprochement with the Karabakh conflict
resolution, Turkey managed to take a key role, though a dangerous one
for Armenia, in the talks over Karabakh at the same time endangering
the optimal format of the negotiations -the OSCE Minsk group.
'President Serzh Sargsyan, entangled in a spider's web of his own
&'initiative-taking' policy, is no more capable of neutralizing the
damages of his own policy.
&'Suspending the peace deal and at the same time pledging not to
walk away from the process, the regime has appeared at a deadlock in
attempts to save its image in the international community.
'In the result of wrong political calculations, the regime, assuming
contradictory commitments, smears Armenia's image as a reliable
partner in the international domain."
