Information on Armenian-Turkish rapprochement and the pre-signed Protocols is so controversial that people cannot draw a definite conclusion.

"I cannot understand the current developments in the political scene though I am eager to," says an Armenian intellectual who preferred staying anonymous.

"The information furnished by Turkey conflicts with that expressed by Armenia's officialdom. I cannot understand anything. I am a scholar and I need facts to make conclusions," says the intellectual.

Armenian noted actor Vladimir Msrian refrained from commenting on Armenian-Turkish relations.

"I have no time. I am busy with other important things. Besides, I don't want to speak on the subject," he said in brief.

 "I don't understand much but I know one thing for sure. The sides must take into consideration public opinion. If the Diaspora boycotts the Protocols and signals to some vivid inaccuracies, I think the documents need to be reviewed. I am against the Protocols' signing," RA national artist Varduhy Varderesian said.

"If you are on friendly terms with someone you should forget the age-long enmity. But are we ready to forget the Armenian Genocide? I think after the Protocols are signed the Genocide recognition will be neglected," added Ms. Varderesian.
