Serzh Sargsyan would say it
"The problems of the Turkey-Armenia Protocols will appear later when we look at the Protocols separately and see what is hidden in each line," secretary of the board of the People's Party of Armenia Grigor Harutyunyan said during a debate today with member of the Republican faction Hamlet Harutyunyan.
"Of course, there is no literal statement about the Genocide and the Karabakh issue, but we saw how Turkey showed its approaches on the issue at the highest level after the release of the Protocols. Turkey has set and continues to set the issue of Karabakh on its agenda because one of its desires is to penetrate the region as a factor and become a participant," said Grigor Harutyunyan.
Hamlet Harutyunyan opposed him and said: "Are the lines in the Protocols like Egyptian mummies that need to be excavated to find what is there? There are no preconditions in the text of the Protocols."
Harutyunyan claimed that he knew the course that Serzh Sargsyan had taken in the past and according to that, he would not accept any precondition for the issue of Karabakh.
"If there are people who say that they are handing Karabakh without even knowing where Karabakh is on the map, at least Serzh Sargsyan is one of those who would say something if there was any precondition," Hamlet Harutunyan said.
In that case, what can you say about the statements by Jirair Sefilyan who "knows very well where Karabakh is located"? In response, Harutyunyan said: "It doesn't matter if it's Sefilyan or somebody else. There is no precondition for lands in the Protocols. There are certain figures that are creating catchwords to prove their existence and how politically active they are, but that is a different story."
In the end, he called on everyone to have a little faith in the government. "And after all, the issue of Turkish-Armenian relations is not a topic for a press conference, but a huge scientific conference. I am asked questions and have to give long explanations."
