Chairman of Turkish Parliament Mehmet Ali Sahin arrived in Canada to
participate in the meeting of G-20 Speakers of Parliament in Ottawa.
He met with Chairman of Canadian Senate and expressed Turkey’s concerns
over the recognition of the Armenian Genocide by Canadian Parliament
in 2004.
Sahin stressed during 1915 events both the Armenian and Turkish nations
suffered losses. However, the historians should discuss the matter,
as the parliaments are not places to discuss historical events,
Turkish Anadolu agency reports.
The Charmin of Canadian Senate considered signing of Armenia-Turkey
Protocols a progressive step, emphasizing the sides should always
look ahead.
