Hillary Clinton: formation of historical commission in progress
I don't think anyone has forgotten about the Armenian Genocide, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said. Yet, as she noted in an Interview with Vladimir Pozner on Russia's Channel One, "but what has happened that is of great import is the work going on between Turkey and . In fact, I was in last fall with the foreign ministers of Turkey, Armenia, Russia, France, other countries to witness the signing of a set of protocols to normalize relationships between Armenia and . And in those protocols, there was an agreement between the two countries to establish a historical commission that would look at all of the issues that are part of the past."

"And I think that's the right way to go, I think, to have the two countries and the two peoples focusing on this themselves. I have said many times we can not change the past we inherit. All we can do is try to have a better future," she concluded, adding that formation of historical commission is in progress.
