“ARMENIAN TURKISH RELATIONS HAVE REACHED A DEADLOCK”
Support A1+!Armenian-Turkish relations have reached a deadlock and although its reasons are partially correct but they do not give a final answer to the question, Vice Speaker of the National Assembly of Armenia Vahan Hovhannissian said during the parliamentary hearings on “Armenian-Turkish relations: Issues and perspectives.”
According to Mr. Hovhannissian, cooperation has never been established between democracies and autocracies. At the same time, he noted that he is far from the idea that Armenia is already a country of classical democracy. However, according to the Vice-Speaker, Turkey is a classical example of dictatorship, since it tries to control not only the present, but also the past. That is the reason why any serious investigation of the Armenian Genocide and its reasons is excluded, and the information about these events is closed for the Turkish society. Besides, according to him, until murderers like Taleat Pasha, Enver and Jamal are considered to be national heroes, “nothing will come out.”
