NTV television, Istanbul
9 Mar 05
Armenian Foreign Minister Vardan Oskanyan rejected the proposal for
a joint deliberation of the Armenian genocide allegations by the
historians of the two countries.
He considered as groundless Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s
proposal that the historians of the two countries conduct joint work
on the issue. Oskanyan said that they [the Armenians] have been
frequently expressing their own position on the issue. Declaring
that the historians have said what they had to say a long time ago,
Oskanyan added that Turkey has to put forward its own position,
as historians can do nothing more.
