The passage of the Armenian Genocide bill in the French Senate means
that the issue transfers to the legal-political field, which can be
more effective for the Armenian side than the process of international
recognition, Ashot Melkonyan, Director of the Institute of History
of the Armenian National Academy of Sciences, told a press conference
today.
According to him, the adoption of bills criminalizing the Armenian
Genocide denial by different countries may serve as a firm basis for
starting the reimbursement process, which official Ankara avoids.
"If the Armenian-Turkish protocols were ratified, they would prevent
the process of international recognition of the Armenian Genocide,"
he said.
Touching upon the Sochi meeting, Ashot Melkonyan noted that "despite
the non-constructive position of Baku, the process of peaceful
settlement of the Karabakh conflict continues thanks to the efforts
of the mediators.
According to him, Azerbaijan is well aware that the military solution
can be destructive for them. That is why Ilham Aliyev does not rush
to refuse from the Minsk Group format.
