YEREVAN, APRIL 14, NOYAN TAPAN. From psychological point of view
establishment of Armenian-Turkish relations is one of the rare delicate
issues of Armenia’s foreign policy, and we should be cautious to the
maximum extent in that issue. Psychologist Karine Nalchajian expressed
such an opinion at the April 15 press conference. She considers very
dangerous the view that we can close the page of past history and
pass to friendly relations.

The psychologist also considers wrong the opinion that time has passed
and the Turks have changed. "A nation as a psychological entity has
its unique mentality, which is inert in its nature. It is very wrong
to say that some nation is changing. Though times have passed and some
things have changed, in general the ethnic mentalities of the Turks
and Armenians have remained the same," K. Nalchajian said. Therefore,
according to her, it is very important taking exact, diplomatic,
well thought-out steps in that issue.

According to K. Nalchajian, though nearly 100 years have passed since
the Armenian Genocide, nothing has been forgotten, as those years
are only a moment in the nation’s life. In psychologist’s opinion,
the world should accept and recognize the Armenian Genocide for us
to get free of the complex of victim.

And sociologist Aharon Adibekian considers that the Armenian-Turkish
people’s diplomacy and economic relations are already
fully-established. And in order to establish them at the state level
we should calculate a great number of factors, including sociological
and psychological ones.
