Turkey should be punished for the Armenian Genocide in 1915. As reported by “Arka” agency, chairman of “Union against Genocide” Turkish organization Ali Ertem said when giving a speech at Yerevan State University today. In his words, it is Turkey’s duty to accept all consequences of the crime committed. A. Ertem emphasized “the historical truth should be recognized in order to establish normal relations between the two peoples.” In his opinion, Turkey first of all has to apologize to the generation, which suffered the genocide. “The massacre of the Armenian people was perpetrated at the indifferent silence of “the civilized” European states, but the recent events in Iraq show the real degree of these countries’ being civilized,” – A. Ertem said. The chairman of the Turkish organization noted that sanctions against Iraq should have been applied to Turkey in their time. Let us note that the Turkish organization is based in Germany.
