The idea of appealing to the international courts belongs to retired Turkish diplomat Gunduz Aktan, who had served Turkish Ambassador to many European structures, Director of the Institute of Oriental Studies at the RA Academy of Sciences Ruben Safrastian told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. In his words, there were two variants of policy on the Armenian Genocide issue. "They were going to proceed with the denial policy or appeal to the international court motivating that Armenians will not be able to prove that the killings of 1915 were Genocide. The decision was taken by the General Staff," he said. Safrastian reminded that Aktan is one of the rigid Turkish politicians and when a member of the Armenian-Turkish Reconciliation Committee always stood against the Armenian Genocide recognition.
