Turkey=?UTF-8?B?4oCZ?=s Leadership will Bow its Head at Armenian Genocide Memorial: Serzh Sargsyan

Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan is confident that Turkey must repent for the Armenian Genocide of 1915. The state leader said this himself in a meeting with members of the Armenian community in Marseille yesterday evening.

“This is neither a precondition nor a strive for nourishing revenge. Turkey must face its history. Sometime, Turkey’s leadership might find the strength and re-evaluate its approach toward the Armenian Genocide. Our position hasn’t changed and it’s clear. We are ready to have normal relations with Turkey, as is fitting for neighboring countries. Such neighboring countries were, for example, Poland and Germany, which Chancellor Willy Brandt, realizing the crime committed by his country, knelt down [before the monument to victims of the] Warsaw Ghetto [Uprising].
