    Turkish FM Ahmet Davutoglu took part in a television program, during
    which he commented on the Armenian Genocide issue and the recent
    demonstration in Istanbul devoted to the Khojaly incidents.

    The program's host recalled that 2015 will mark the 100th anniversary
    of the events in 1915, and, in response to the host's question as to
    whether Turkey is designing a new strategy for this anniversary,
    Davutoglu said activities are underway concerning this matter for a
    long time, Hurriyet daily of Turkey informs.

    Turkey's FM also noted: "In order to share history together, we need
    to keep the communication channels open. We wish to share the pain
    with those who wish to share that pain."

    And with respect to the signs that degraded the Armenians during the
    demonstration in Istanbul devoted to the Khojaly incidents, Ahmet
    Davutoglu said such signs are unacceptable. "It is also our duty to
    share the pain of our Azerbaijani brothers. [But] We will not
    sacrifice our pain to the culture of such hatred and insult,"
    Davutoglu added.
