ARMENIA OBLIGED TO DISCUSS GENOCIDE ISSUE

Politics

Vartan Oskanian, Minister of Foreign Affairs is anxious about the statement made by Turkish high-ranking authorities at the US Congress.

'Governments should keep from interference in such issues. But when Armenian issues are concerned, we cannot be indifferent as a government especially under the Turkish government advocacy,'Vartan Oskanian has highlighted. <

Abdula Gyul together with a number of other Turk officials have warned that Turkish- American relationship will be questioned if the Congress adopts the resolution of Armenian Genocide.

According to Vartan Oskanian, this is nothing but an attempt to make critics on the Turkish stance keep silence abroad, the way they do in their country through Penal Code.

Oskanian informed that he had discussed the issue with Condoleezza Rice at the meeting held on Monday. Turkish- Armenian relationships as well as negotiations about Nagorno Karabakh conflict resolution and the upcoming elections were in the agenda.
