If Turkey is prepared to acknowledge the Armenian Genocide, then its leaders can proceed immediately to direct dialogue with its counterparts in Armenia to define a common vision for the future.
I was raised with a huge Armenian influence, always hearing stories of Armenia, celebrating Armenian holidays.
I think that the memory of Armenia's genocide opened my eyes at an early age to the existence of political cynicism.
Modern Armenia survived only because it was the single province controlled, and protected, by the Russian Empire. The rest of the territory within its historical borders is almost wholly devoid of ethnic Armenians.
I always encourage my promoter to see if we can go someplace new. And he'll go, 'OK, how about Armenia?'
But at the beginning, our definition of the genocide was what happened to Armenia in 1917 or 1919, it's happened to the Jew in Europe, and we were not realizing - In our point of view, they have not the tools to do a genocide.
