Turkish PM calls on Armenia to 'refrain from ventures'
Baku, May 17, AssA-Irada
Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyib Erdogan has urged Armenia to
refrain from 'getting involved in ventures'.
Addressing the 3rd Council of Europe (CE) summit in Warsaw on Tuesday,
Erdogan called on Armenia to 'look forward instead of researching
the past'. Today, over one million archive materials are available
in Turkey, said the Turkish official, calling on Armenia to disclose
its archives as well and allow historians and experts to research them.
"If it is necessary to pass any decision, let's do it. But there is
no need to be engaged in ventures and put pressure on other countries'
parliaments."
The Turkish prime minister noted that he did not plan to touch on
the false genocide of Armenians during in his speech at the summit,
but the statements by the Armenian leadership on the issue made him
change his mind.
Erdogan added that the decisions on false genocide passed by foreign
countries' parliaments contradict European principles from the
viewpoint of human rights.*
