Font Size: default medium large A Turkish scholar, who is also the chairman of the Association to Fight Against Baseless Genocide Allegations, said Monday that Armenian lawmakers were living in a world of dreams, while commenting on demands of the Armenian parliament.
"Armenian parliament once again stated expressly that they will not give up emity," said Savas Egilmez, a professor at Ataturk University, in eastern province of Erzurum.
In a special session on December 19 and 20, Armenian Parliament asked Turkey to annul article 301th of Turkish Penal Code and re-draw the border between the two countries according to (the null and void) Treaty of Sevres, Egilmez recalled.
"They prepared a bill of 14.5 billion USD regarding the incidents of 1915," Egilmez recalled. "They are living in a world of dreams," he said.
Egilmez said Turkish people expect an apology from Armenia for massacres committed by Armenian gangs during the WWI.
"In order to establish political and economic relations with this country, Turkish people expect Armenia to apologize for massacres, demolish the so-called genocide monument and remove several articles and allegations (that are against Turkey) from their constitution ," he added. Go Back |
