THE ARMENIAN-TURKISH RELATIONS ON LINE
03:11 pm 21 March, 2006
The on line programme of March 20 entitled « History » of the informative TG1 channel of the RAI UNO Television was devoted to the past present and future Armenian - Turkish relations. The guests of the program were the Armenian Embassador to Italy Ruben Shugaryan and the Turkish Embassador to Italy Ugur Dijal and the Turkish historian Omer Turan.
The cause for the program was the RAI UNO special program devoted to the genocides of the 20th century. It began with the presentation of the Armenian Genocide against which the Turkey Embassador had sent a letter of complaint to the television. The program began with Sharl Aznavur’s inteview with the journalist who survived in the Osventium.
Then the Turkish Embassador accused the Italian press of partial coverage of the issue of the Armenian genocide mentioning that Turkey hasn’t adopted rejecting policy, it simply tries to find the truth in the archives an it offers to form a committe of Armenian - Turkish historians. In his turn Ruben Shaguryan claimed that the interpretation of the issue from the Turkish side has nothing in common with the Armenian interpretation and the position of the international society on this score.By the way, the majority of them including the Italian Parliament have recognised the Armenian genocide. The Armenian Embassador put his accent on the fact that the history can not be converted by the censor or other means.The Armenian genocide is a historical fact and it is not a question of discussion and the Armenian diaspora of 6 miilion people is a briiliant proof for it.
Speaking about the present Armenian - Turkish relations Ruben Shugaryan mentioned Armenia’s readiness to establish diplomatic relations with Turkey without any conditions at the same time he mentioned that the closed frontier does not comply with the principles of the European Councel. Some documentary films and photographs were desplayed during the program. |
