Turkey has intensified the policy of Armenian Genocide denial over
the past years, Turkish studies expert Artak Shakaryan told reporters
on Thursday.

In his words, Turkey’s policy is based on the spreading of doubts.

Turkey has repeatedly offered to create a commission of historians
to investigate whether genocide took place in 1915.

The expert called on to make qualitative change in the process of
international recognition of the Armenian Genocide. He expressed the
hope that the year 2015 will become a psychological barrier in the
process of passing from recognition to the demand for reparation.

“We must show that even Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s
apology on bended knees is not sufficient, and that we have clear
demands,” Shakaryan stressed.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
