ARF BUREAU MEMBERS SAYS HISTORIANS' COMMISSION A BLOW TO THOSE WHO RECOGNIZED ARMENIAN GENOCIDE
ARF Bureau Member Vigen Hovsepian, speaking on the Armenian-Turkish developments over the weekend, said that Armenia could develop most if having good-neighborly relations with its neighbors. "However, good-neighborly relations are nothing if not based on mutual respect," he added. "It is a very superficial logic to accept Turkey as a country that has good intentions as that country continues to violate the dignity of the Armenian nation and its history by denying the fact of the Armenian genocide. Imagine, for instance, Israel establishing normal relations with a country that denies the fact of Holocaust let alone the country that had perpetrated the Holocaust."
As for the commission of the Armenian and Turkish historians, which supposedly should discuss issues related to the Armenian genocide, Hovsepian said: "For years, versions for such commissions have been proposed in order to slow down the international recognition of the Armenian genocide and the efforts aimed at such recognition. It is waste of time and we should not get in trap. If such a commission is to discuss the consequences of the genocide and the way or reparation, it is good. But if it is to discuss the fact of the genocide and make speculations on it, it is more than ridiculous and it is a blow to those who have recognized the Armenian genocide or have acted in support of the recognition," Hovsepian said.
