PanARMENIAN.Net - “US Armenian community became one of the strongest links in the issue of international recognition of Armenian Genocide. I am sure the Diaspora will proceed with its mission. Armenian Genocide recognition is inevitable,” RA President Serzh Sarsyan stated in Washington National Cathedral.
Addressing Diaspora’s concerns over the possibility for Armenia-Turkey Protocols to impede international recognition of Armenian Genocide, he stated: “Time came to prove these concerns to be groundless. Over the last months, we witnessed Turkey's failed attempts at presenting Armenia and Diaspora as divided in their opinions. We’re here to disprove these hollow surmises. There are no separated Armenia and Diaspora, but only a united Armenian nation,” Serzh Sargsyan stressed.
According to the President, Ankara is ready to normalize ties with neighboring countries, unwilling, yet, to yield to preconditions. “Our position in Armenia-Turkey rapprochement remains unchanged: we will not allow Ankara to set preconditions to Armenia and Diaspora.”
Armenian President stressed that Armenia will not allow to question the fact of the Genocide, or allow suppositions on the possibility for Turkey to play a positive role in Karabakh conflict settlement issue. As he noted, it is a norm for any newly-adopted direction in foreign policy to be put to the test. “And I’m confident, we will pass this test with dignity,” Armenian President emphasized.
