/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "The struggle against Armenian statements is a
priority task of the Government foreign policy. Working out a new
strategy is most important to us," the Turkish Foreign Minister
Abdullah Gul stated, Turkish media reported. "We have made a
historical proposal to Armenia - the PM sent a letter to Armenian
President Robert Kocharian, officially presenting the proposals of
the Turkish party over the disputable issue. Our evaluation of the
response letter of April 26 was positive. The availability of common
approaches in these 2 letters for dialogue is still being studied,"
he remarked. Turning to countries that have recognized the Armenian
Genocide, the Turkish FM said, "We seriously warn countries, whose
parliaments accuse Turkey and the Turkish people in committing a
genocide. No one is entitled to accuse the Turkish people based on
distortion of historical facts and political profit." As reported
by the Azg Daily, touching upon the Armenian-Turkish relations,
Gul underscored the Armenian party is fully responsible for their
unsettled state. "I want to specially accentuate that our Government is
not against normalization of relations with Armenia. On the contrary,
it will promote establishment of stability in the region and creation
of atmosphere of cooperation. We work for gradual establishment of
normal relations. Our dialogue with Armenia will continue with task
of this kind to overcome absence of mutual confidence between the
two countries," he summed up, Regnum news agency reported.
