Turkey should have the courage to face its past and acknowledge the Armenian Genocide, said Goran Lennmarker, OSCE PA special representative for Daqliq Qarabaq.

“Turkey will join the European Union when it meets norms of the organization. Today, Armenia has a historical opportunity to help Turkey that is being transformed into a European state,”  Lennmarker said at a meeting with Tigran Torosian, Speaker of Armenian Parliament.

Stressing the importance of establishment of Armenian-Turkish relations, he said the first move should become opening of the border, what will help Turkey to assert itself as a true European country. /Panarmenian.net/
