RA Foreign Minister didn't say Armenia agrees to form commission of historians
The Armenian Foreign Ministry refuted Turkish media reports that RA FM Edward Nalbandian allegedly announced Armenia's consent to form a commission of historians to study the fact of the Armenian Genocide.

"Minister Nalbandian emphasized that Armenia's position on the Genocide issue is unchangeable," head of the RA MFA media relations division Tigran Balayan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. "The audio of the news conference Minister Nalbandian gave in Istanbul will be posted on the Ministry's website soon," he added.

Today, some Turkish media circulated reports that Armenia "changed its stand on the Armenian Genocide issue and agreed to form a joint commission of historians to study the 1915 events."
