Armenian-Turkish protocols should be recalled before April 24 - Turkologist

The Armenian-Turkish protocols must come to their end de jure, too; that is, they need to be recalled prior to April 24, the centenary of the Armenian Genocide.

Armenian-Turkish protocols should be recalled before April 24 - Turkologist

STEPANAKERT, FEBRUARY 3, ARTSAKHPRESS: Turkologist Ruben Melkonyan noted about the above-said at a press conference on Tuesday. He also expressed confidence that Armenia will take corresponding action before the aforesaid date. And reflecting on the question as to whether there are any inconsistencies between these protocols and the recently issued Pan-Armenian Declaration on the 100th Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide, Melkonyan noted that these two documents do not contradict one another.

“Today’s border between Armenia and Turkey was said in the protocols. If Armenia has signed this document, this doesn’t mean that it rules out the territorial claims beyond the protocols. I don’t think that this point on the Armenian-Turkish protocols deprives us [, Armenians,] of our opportunity of being a claimant,” the turkologist stated, in particular. To note, both parties have halted the process of ratification of the Armenian-Turkish protocols, which were signed in 2009.
