Samson Ozararat: number of Turks visiting Armenian Genocide Memorial increases year by year

The number of Turks visiting the Armenian Genocide memorial increases year by year, Representative of Armenia to the BSEC Business Council Samson Ozararat said.

“I come to Tsitsernakaberd every April 24 to commemorate the Armenian Genocide victims. My friends from France and Turkey come too,” he told a PanARMENIAN.Net correspondent.

“I cannot say when Turkey will recognize the fact of the Armenian Genocide, however I can say that presently, Turkish public consciousness undergoes serious evolution towards recognition. A series of events dated to the Genocide 95th anniversary are organized in Istanbul today. It is a positive sign,” Mr. Ozararat said.
