The Armenian nation must raise issues of reparations for the Genocide and put the recognition claims aside, a representative of a Germany-based Turkish organization, Union Against Genocide member Mahmut Uzun told reporters Monday, April 25, in Yerevan.
Citing his Kurdish origins, Uzun said he feels shame for many of his compatriots who participated in the annihilation of Armenians many years ago.
“I am confident that no nation can live and establish a state on lands that once belonged to another nation,” Uzun said. “The Armenian territories must one day be returned to them.”
Uzun then unveiled the statement of their Union, stating they are “filing a claim against Turkey and Azerbaijan, as well as all the states that are arming those two.”
