Kiro Manoyan makes demands to Turkish government
The Turkish government should officially recognize the Armenian Genocide and apologize for it, ARF-Dashnaktsutyun Party member Kiro Manoyan said.
“It is necessary to state clearly what crimes were committed and by whom. Turkey should hold large-scale events within the country and outside it, with the genocide theme being a component of discussions,” Manoyan said at the parliamentary hearings “The World without Genocides”.
According to ARFD member, Turkey should provide political and other assistance to the Armenian state. “Besides financial compensation and opening of the Armenian-Turkish border, Ankara needs to take a number of other positive steps, including return of property and payment of compensation for the lives lost,” Manoyan said.
