97 members of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe
(PACE) have sent an appeal to Armenian President Robert Kocharian
calling on him to accept Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip
Erdogan’s proposal to study the so-called `genocide of Armenians’
documents.
10 Turkish, 10 Russian, 8 Azerbaijani, and 4 Georgian MPs signed the
appeal.
Erdogan forwarded a letter to the Armenian President several days ago
proposing to set up a joint commission and draw historians to look
into the 1915 developments in the Ottoman Empire. Kocharian, in his
reply on April 27, rejected the proposal.
