"Patriotism doesn't lie in the hatred towards Turks"
Today the Public Council expressed its opinion on the Armenian-Turkish Protocols during a meeting with Armenia's President Serzh Sargsyan.
"The Public Council thinks that the Protocols carry no preconditions and should be signed by the two parliaments" Council Chairman Vazgen Manukian announced today.
The latter thinks the ratification of the Protocols in their present form derives from the interests of Armenia. "I think that patriotism doesn't lie in the hatred towards Turks but in the love towards your own people."
Council members, Armenian renowned actor Sos Sargsian and academician Babken Harutiunian, sounded against the Protocols' signing.
Only environmentalist Karine Danielian abstained from voting.
