By saying "reasonable timeframes", Turkey means April 24, 2010
By saying "reasonable timeframes", Turkey means April 24, 2010, according to Caucasus Institute Director Alexander Iskandaryan.

"I don't think this is a tough deadline, but such likelihood is great," he told today a joint news conference with management expert Harutyun Mesropyan.

The date is very important for Armenia too, since the road map signed between Armenian and Turkish leaders on April 23, 2009, enabled U.S. President to avoid using the word «Genocide» in his annual address, Harutyun Mesropyan noted for his part. "The phenomenon has another negative aspect since April 23 marked the start of Armenia-Diaspora conflict," he stated.

Disagreeing to the above viewpoint, Alexander Iskandaryan added that Diaspora started Genocide recognition campaign much before Armenia's gaining independence. "Nevertheless, Armenian Diaspora will continue its struggle for the simple reason that Genocide recognition forms part of its self-identification," he stressed.
