Turkish Parliament Speaker raised Armenian Genocide issue in Canada
Turkey’s Parliament Speaker Mehmet Ali Sahin, who is paying a visit to Canada, had a meeting with his Canadian counterpart Noel Kinsella. “CnnTurk” news service writes that the Turkish official made remarks on Armenian Genocide issue, saying: “When Allah created the man, eyes were put on the front side, in order they look forward, and the stuff of history should be left to the historians. We should look forward to develop our relations.”
Turkish Parliament Speaker reminded that the Canadian Government is the only government to have recognized Armenian Genocide, and claimed: “PM of Canada smoothly expresses himself over this issue. We think it is an accurate step forwarding to the right path. We expect that in April we will not have new problems. We approve the scientific and impartial research of these events.”
Canadian Senate Speaker answered to Sahin’s claim: “Of course, people can try to forward looking back all the time, which in this case is impossible. If we throw a glance on the world history, we will see, we are not living isolated from one another. Thus, we should learn from the history and not harm each other.”
